KSCA Rajnagar Stadium: The Karnataka cricket team, under the leadership of Devdutt Padikkal, has ended the 11-year wait and reached their first Ranji Trophy final since the 2014-15 season. The team's qualification came after they took a first-innings lead against Uttarakhand in the semifinal played at the Ekana Stadium on Thursday.
The eight-time champions, Karnataka, will play the title clash against Jammu and Kashmir, who created history by reaching the finals for the first time by beating Bengal in the other semi-final.
The BCCI is yet to announce the venue for the final match, but sources have confirmed to IANS that Hubli is leading the race to host the clash. "It is understood that KSCA Rajnagar Stadium in Hubbali is leading the race to host the Ranji Trophy final. A JKCA official told IANS that it is likely the final will be held in Hubbali, though a formal confirmation on this hasn't come yet."
