Sameer Rizvi’s Fiery 200

Meanwhile, the match was between UP and Tripura, at the Vadodara Stadium. where UP piled on 405 runs. This also happens to be the fastest double ton in history of U21 State A trophy, but won’t really go down as a List A record. So, Kiwi Chad Bowes still holds the record for fastest double ton in List A cricket — in 103 deliveries in the Ford Trophy.

Permanent in DC XI for IPL 2025?

As far as the match is concerned, Sameer Rizvi came on to bat in the 23rd overs, and got into his groove at the very start of the innings. He has been in sensational form throughout the tournament, and had scored 153 in 114 balls vs Himachal Pradesh, and 137 from 69 vs Pondicherry, in the last two matches.

That means, DC would be keeping a close eye on him for the upcoming IPL 2025 season, after failing to deliver in 2024. For CSK this year, he could only manage to score 51 runs in 8 innings. Now, he could slot in anywhere in the middle-order for the Delhi franchise, who would miss the presence of Rishabh Pant, but will have veteran KL Rahul’s services.
