Mayank Agarwal Drops a Sitter At Slip, Offends Bowler KL Rahul in Ranji Trophy Final 2025-26 [WATCH]

The Ranji Trophy final 2025-26 witnessed a rare sight as the star Indian wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul picked up the ball to bowl two overs in the Karnataka vs Jammu and Kashmir fixture. The player had even bagged a chance to add a crucial First-Class wicket to his tally, but his childhood teammate Mayank Agarwal missed grabbing an easy catch at the slip.

The incident left the batter disappointed, as it would have been a great addition to his versatile arsenal. Besides being a gun fielder and an exceptional gloveman behind the stumps, Rahul has also played multiple roles in the Indian batting lineup and captained the team as well. Notably, the batter has one List A wicket to his name, which he snared back in 2014.

However, besides the 33-year-old, another two specialist batters, Mayank and Karun Nair, were also seen to bowl two and seven overs in the match, respectively.
