When will Virat Kohli play in the Ranji Trophy 2025?

The excitement among the fans is palpable as Virat Kohli is set to play in the Ranji Trophy for his local team Delhi. Kohli is set to return to the Ranji Trophy for the first time since 2012, 13 years to the last time he featured in the tournament. The likes of Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, and Rishabh Pant have also taken the field for their respective sides in the Ranji Trophy round that began on Thursday. 

The A-list players from India's Test team have featured in the Ranji Trophy after a poor performance in the Border Gavaskar Trophy Down Under which India ended up losing 3-1 to Australia. 

Kohli scored just 190 runs in nine innings despite having a hundred to his name in Perth. His weakness to deliveries on the fifth stump drew criticism from the fans as he was dismissed and caught eight times in the slip cordon. Kohli is set to feature for Delhi and the exact timing of the game is yet to be known.
