Template:2021–22 Indian domestic cricket season The 2021–22 Ranji Trophy was the 87th season of the Ranji Trophy, the premier first-class cricket tournament in India.[1][2] The tournament was split into two phases, with the league stage being played from 17 February to 15 March 2022,[3] and the knockout phase played from 6 to 26 June 2022.[4][5] Due to the delayed start of the tournament because of the COVID-19 pandemic, teams were split into eight Elite groups, instead of five as per previous editions, and the Plate Group.[6] The seven teams that won their Elite Group with the best points progressed to the knockout phase. They were joined by the winner of the pre-quarter-final match between the Elite Group winning team with the fewest points and the winner of the Plate Group.[7]

In the opening round of fixtures, Sakibul Gani of Bihar became the first player to score a triple century on their first-class debut.[8] In their Plate Group match against Mizoram, he scored 341 runs.[9]

Following the conclusion of the group stage, Madhya Pradesh, Bengal, Karnataka, Mumbai, Uttarakhand, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh had all won their respective groups to qualify for the quarter-finals. Jharkhand won Group H and Nagaland won the Plate Group to advance to the preliminary quarter-final match.[10] In the first innings of the preliminary quarter-final, Jharkhand were bowled out for 880 runs, the fourth-highest team total in the Ranji Trophy.[11] Jharkhand then extended their lead to 1,008 runs, the biggest ever lead in first-class cricket, progressing to the quarter-finals based on their first innings lead.[12] Mumbai,[13] Uttar Pradesh[14] and Madhya Pradesh[15] all won their quarter-final matches to advance to the semi-finals. Bengal also reached the semi-finals, after they drew their match against Jharkhand, progressing in the tournament due to having a first-innings lead.[16]

In the first semi-final, Madhya Pradesh beat Bengal by 174 runs to reach their first final in the tournament since the 1998–99 edition.[17] The second semi-final, between Mumbai and Uttar Pradesh was drawn, with Mumbai advancing to the final on their first-innings lead.[18] In the final, Madhya Pradesh beat Mumbai by six wickets to win their first Ranji Trophy title.[n 1][19][20]

Background

The 2021–22 Ranji Trophy was initially scheduled to take place from 13 January to 20 March 2022.[21] The previous edition of the tournament was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[22] However, on 4 January 2022, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed that the tournament had been postponed due to an increase of COVID-19 cases in India.[23][24] The BCCI announced that they would try to host the league stage of the Ranji Trophy before the start of the 2022 Indian Premier League in April.[25] Later in January 2022, the BCCI said that they were looking at the possibility of holding the tournament in two phases, from February to March, and June to July.[26]

Originally, the tournament was scheduled to start on 16 November 2021,[1] but was later postponed to 5 January 2022[27] and again to 13 January 2022.[21] As per previous editions, the tournament would have been divided into six groups, with six teams in five Elite Groups and eight teams in the Plate Group.[28] The winners of each Elite Group would have progressed directly to the quarter-finals, with the second-placed teams and the winner of the Plate Group playing in pre-quarters matches to determine the final eight teams.[29]

Teams

The teams were placed in the following groups:[30]

Group A (Rajkot) Group B (Cuttack) Group C (Chennai) Group D (Ahmedabad) Group E (Trivandrum)
Group F (Delhi) Group G (Haryana) Group H (Guwahati) Plate Group (Kolkata)
