Qamran Iqbal arrives early for Duleep Trophy after unbeaten 160 in Ranji final

Qamran Iqbal arrived early for the Duleep Trophy at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence, where North Zone will take on West Zone from Sunday.

Called up less than 24 hours before the Ranji Trophy final, the 24-year-old travelled nearly 2,800 km from Srinagar to Hubballi and scored an unbeaten 160 that helped Jammu and Kashmir win their maiden title. He reflects on the whirlwind journey, Jammu and Kashmir's rise and his ambition to shine in the Duleep Trophy.
