Ranji Trophy quarterfinals: Suved Parkar pens history with ton on debut

Suved Parkar (104*, 218b, 8x4, 2x6) slammed a hundred on his Mumbai debut, while Sarfaraz Khan (69*, 103b, 8x4, 1x6) and Armaan Jaffer (60, 133b, 7x4, 2x6) hit half-centuries as Mumbai coasted to 303 for three on Day One of their Ranji Trophy quarterfinal against Uttarakhand at the Alur Cricket Stadium on Monday.

Enjoying a smashing start to his first-class career - and that too in a Ranji Trophy knockout game - Parkar reached his hundred by flicking Akash Madhiwal for a four through square leg in the final session. Ironically, Parkar joined the likes of present Mumbai captain - Prithvi Shaw (120 against Tamil Nadu in the Ranji Trophy semifinals in the 201617 season) and head coach Amol Muzudar (260* against Haryana in the Ranji QF of the 1993-94 season) - who too had scored centuries on their Mumbai debut a t the knockout stage of the Ranji Trophy.
