BCCI’s general manager Saba Karim, on Tuesday, has rejected the use of DRS in quarterfinals of the Ranji Trophy owing to the lack of uniformity with only two televised games in the fixture with Karnataka and Andhra's game will not be televised. Karim added that it will be used in semis and final.

Odisha Ranji coach Rashmi Ranjan Parida is a delighted man after the team qualified for the Quarter-finals and stated that it all began with a dream. Parida further added that it is a moment of pride for the team as they gear up to play arch-rival Bengal in the first Quarter-final in Cuttack.

Sourav Ganguly might ring in some changes to the domestic structure for the upcoming season of Ranji Trophy and will discuss the idea during Sunday's Apex Council meeting. There will also be a discussion on extending Ombudsman Just. DK Jain's contract instead of appointing a new ethics officer.
