Rajasthan Women's T20 Championship: Sirohi Team All-Out For 4 Runs, Selectors Under Fire
Last Updated:
During a match, Rajasthan's Sirohi women's team was dismissed for four runs against Sikar in the Women's Senior T20 Championship
Deepening rifts within Rajasthan cricket have begun spilling over onto the field, with the latest embarrassment coming in the ongoing Women's Senior T20 Championship. On Monday, during the match in Jaipur between Sikar and Sirohi, the Sirohi women's team was bundled out for just four runs, two of which came from extras, in one of the most lopsided contests in recent memory.
The performance was nothing short of disastrous where 10 Sirohi batters were dismissed without scoring, while the only player to get off the mark managed just two runs. The meagre total quickly reignited debate over team selection, with critics openly questioning whether the selectors or the players should bear the blame.
The incident has intensified scrutiny on the Rajasthan Cricket Association (RCA), which has been mired in factional battles for over a year. Infighting, legal disputes, and power struggles have reportedly trickled down to district associations, affecting both resources and player development. Insiders allege that selections are increasingly based on influence rather than merit, with the Sirohi debacle serving as a glaring example of the consequences.
