Gujarat Batsman Samit Gohel's Ranji Trophy Triple Ton Smashes World Record

Gujarat Batsman Samit Gohel's Ranji Trophy Triple Ton Smashes World Record Gujarat batsman Samit Gohel on Tuesday created a world record with his 359 not out against Odisha in Ranji Trophy quarterfinal match helping him become highest scorer as an opener in a First-Class match at the Sawai Man Singh stadium, Jaipur. Gohel, who is the fifth triple-centurion this season, is also the

second Gujarat batsman to have scored a triple century after Priyank Panchal achieved the feat last month. Riding on Samit's triple ton, Gujarat set Odisha a mammoth 706-run target on the fifth day of the Ranji match.

With the target, seemingly impossible to achieve, Gujarat are on the verge of reaching the semifinals of the Ranji Trophy 2016.
