Ranji Trophy Final Bengal vs Saurashtra Live Score Day 1: Manoj Tiwari and co. look to claim Ranji dream at Eden Gardens

Bengal vs Saurashtra Day 1 Ranji Trophy final
Ranji Trophy Final: Bengal captain Manoj Tiwary (Right) and coach Laxmi Ratan Shukla (Left).
For Manoj Tiwari, his cricketing tryst to win Ranji Trophy with Bengal has been similar to the Nawazuddin Siddiqui -starrer movie Manjhi – The Mountain Man. The famous dialogue from the protagon, “jab tak todenge nahi tab tak chorenge nahi (Will not stop until I break this).” It took Dashrat Manjhi (played Nawazuddin Siddiqui) 22 years to carve a path through a mountain with a chisel and a hammer is indicative of Bengal’s angst to win India’s prestigious domestic club competition.
Bengal captain Manoj Tiwary has a similar life story. He is into his 19th year in first-class cricket but has failed to win the Ranji Trophy. He has come close thrice — 2005-06, 2006-07, 2019-20 — and ended up as as runners-up all three times. [Read]
