TheJharkhand cricket team is afirst-classcricket team based in theIndianstate ofJharkhand.[1][2][3] When the old state of Bihar was split intoJharkhand state andBihar state, the Jharkhand team took the place of theBihar cricket team, as much of the former's state's cricketing infrastructure was inJharkhand.
Jharkhand State Cricket Association was formed on November 15, 2000, and the team made itsfirst-class debut in November 2004 againstSaurashtra in the2004/05 Ranji Trophy atMadhavrao Scindia Cricket Ground,Rajkot. The match was drawn.[4]
The team won the2010/11 Vijay Harare Trophy againstGujarat at theHolkar Cricket Stadium inIndore. Jharkhand batted first and were boosted by several useful contributions from their batsmen while Gujarat in their reply failed to measure up against a dominating bowling performance to sink to a 159-run defeat.[5]
In 2021, Jharkhand have scored 422 runs losing 9 wickets in the first innings. It is the highest ever total in 50 over domestic cricket in India.[6] In March 2022, in the preliminary quarter-final match againstNagaland in the2021–22 Ranji Trophy, Jharkhand made their highest team total in a first-class cricket match with 880,[7] thefourth-highest team total in the Ranji Trophy.[8]
