Chandigarh, City cricket star Manan Vohra has reached a remarkable career landmark by completing 10,000 runs in the BCCI domestic circuit. The right-handed opener, currently representing Chandigarh in the ongoing Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy in Kolkata is in impressive form and struck two half centuries in the tournament.
Manan, who made his first-class debut for Punjab in the 2011-12 season has transitioned to Chandigarh after the UT Cricket Association (UTCA) earned BCCI recognition in 2019. Since then, he has been a cornerstone of Chandigarh cricket and leading the senior team as captain since its inception.
Manan has amassed 3879 runs in 105 innings of 68 matches in First-Class cricket, 2630 runs in 74 innings of 75 matches in List A games, and an impressive 3494 runs from 131 innings in 136 T20 appearances. His journey has also seen him don colours at higher levels, representing India Under-19, India A, and featuring in the Indian Premier League (IPL) for teams such as Kings XI Punjab, Rajasthan Royals, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Lucknow SuperGiants.
“Commenting on this landmark, he said that his goal is still alive to don the Indian national jersey and represent India on the ICC’s platform. He added that he remains fully committed to working harder, improving every day and seizing every opportunity that brings him closer to that dream.”
Appreciating the landmark, Saraansh Tandon, President, UTCA said, Crossing 10,000 runs in domestic cricket is no small feat, and he has been a driving force in shaping the identity and competitiveness of our team. We believe he still has many strong years ahead of him, and UTCA will continue to support his pursuit of higher honours for the country.”
