List of Ranji Trophy triple centuries
In cricket, a batsman reaches a triple century if they scores 300 or more runs in a single innings. The Ranji Trophy is the premier first-class cricket championship played in India. Conducted by the Board of Control for Cricket in India, it was founded in 1934 as "The Cricket Championship of India".[1][2] As of November 2016, a triple century has been scored on 39 occasions by 34 different batsmen in the Ranji Trophy.[3]
The first triple century in the Ranji Trophy was scored by Maharashtra's Vijay Hazare against Baroda in the 1939–40 season.[3][4] As of November 2016, the most recent triple century in the tournament was scored by Priyank Panchal from Gujarat, who made 314* runs against Punjab in the 2016–17 season.[5] The highest score in the competition was made by B. B. Nimbalkar, who scored 443 runs not out for Maharashtra against Kathiawar in the 1948–49 season. It is the only instance of a quadruple century in the tournament.[3][6] The highest number of triple centuries are scored by Ravindra Jadeja, who has reached the milestone three times while playing for Saurashtra.[7] Jadeja is followed by V. V. S. Laxman, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Wasim Jaffer, with two triple centuries each.[3] Tamil Nadu's Woorkeri Raman and Arjan Kripal Singh are the only two batsmen to score triple centuries in the same innings.[3] As of November 2016, five batsmen have scored 290–299 runs in an innings, and three of them were not out.[3]
Seven centuries have been made by players of Mumbai, which is more than any other team.[3] Goa, Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra and Saurashtra have conceded the greatest number of centuries, with three each.[3] Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai has had five Ranji Trophy triple centuries scored at the venue, more than any other ground.[3]
