Event Description

Led by the great off spinner Erapalli Prasanna, the newly-renamed Karnataka state first won the Ranji Trophy in 1973-74. They ended Mumbai’s 15-year reign and then beat Rajasthan in the final. It began a redistribution of power in Indian cricket. Soon six Karnataka players from that final were in a touring Indian squad. Here, discussing the event are Ramachandra Guha, Suresh Menon and Sharda Ugra with Prasanna and the baby of that victorious team, Sanjay Desai. They recall the event, its impact on Indian cricket and the many stories behind the story.
