The 1945–46 Ranji Trophy was the 12th season of the Ranji Trophy. Holkar won the title defeating Baroda in the final.
Highlights
- Holkar scored 912 for 8 decl against Mysore in the semifinal.[1] This was the highest score in Indian first class cricket until Hyderabad made 944 for 6 against Andhra in 1993–94.[2]
- Six batsmen scored hundreds for Holkar: Kamal Bhandarkar 142, Chandu Sarwate 101, Madhavsinh Jagdale 164, C. K. Nayudu 101, Bhausaheb Nimbalkar 172 and Rameshwar Pratap Singh 100. This has never been equalled.[3]
- There were seven century partnerships in the Holkar innings. All wickets from one to eight, except the second, made more than 100 runs.
- B. K. Garudachar took 4 wickets for 301. This is the most expensive bowling in Indian cricket, and third most expensive in all first-class cricket.[4]
- Chandu Sarwate took 9 for 61 in the Mysore first innings in addition to his hundred. It is the only instance of a century and nine wickets in an innings in Indian cricket.[5]
- Mysore conceded defeat on the fourth day.
- Baroda won the Zonal finals and the Semifinals by the spin of a coin, as both matches were unable to produce a winner. The Zonal finals were drawn with the first innings incomplete,[6] while their semifinal ended in a tie.[7]
- Vijay Merchant averaged 405.00 with the bat (405 in two innings, once out). This is the highest batting average achieved for any Ranji season.
- C. K. Nayudu scored 200 for Holkar v Baroda in the final at the age of 50 years and 142 days. He is the oldest Indian cricketer to score a double hundred and the fifth oldest in all first class cricket after Dave Nourse, John King, Archie MacLaren and Jack Hobbs.[8]
