Kaif leads Uttar Pradesh to maiden Ranji Trophy title
Mohammad Kaif lead Uttar Pradesh to their first-ever Ranji Trophy final victory when the hosts beat Bengal on the basis of their first-innings lead
'This win will take us a long way'
Mohammad Kaif was the decisive factor in Uttar Pradesh's surge to - and eventual clinching of - their maiden Ranji Trophy Final title
Uttar Pradesh take the honours on engrossing day
On a day when everything hinged on who would take the first-innings lead, Uttar Pradesh held their nerve to dismiss Bengal 14 runs short of their target and build a platform from which they look hard-pressed to lose
'Couple of decisions went against us' - Dasgupta
Paras Mhambrey came charging up towards the room where the analyst was recording the ball-by-ball of the Bengal innings.
