Delhi coach Sarandeep Singh said that Virat Kohli has given his commitment to play Ranji Trophy again if there is an opportunity in future.

Delhi reached 41/1 in reply to Railways' 241 all out at stumps on Day 1 at the Arun jaitley Stadium. Virat Kohli, who is playing his first Ranji Trophy match after more than 12 years, will come out to bat on Friday.

Railways are reeling in the second innings as they have lost seven wickets leaving Delhi on the verge of a win. Earlier, Delhi got all out for 374 in the first innings as Himanshu Sangwan took four wickets for Railways.

Barring Navdeep Saini, Himmat Singh is the only player in this squad, who has shared a dressing room with Virat Kohli.

Virat Kohli’s heartwarming gesture after Delhi’s Ranji Trophy win saw him patiently pose for pictures with ground staff, security personnel, and Railways players, acknowledging their efforts in managing the massive crowd drawn by his much-anticipated return.

It was Delhi’s second win of the season and their chances of making the knockouts from Elite Group D depend on results of other matches.

Virat Kohli made his much awaited Ranji Trophy comeback after a 12-year hiatus, playing for Delhi in their last group encounter against Railways at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli's return to Ranji Trophy has left the Arun Jaitley Stadium massively crowded in a rare view from a domestic match in the country.
