Priyanshu Moliya scripted history with a sensational triple century in Round 3 of the Ranji Trophy. The 21-year-old smashed an unbeaten 321 for Baroda against Jammu and Kashmir.

Moliya's record-breaking knock powered Baroda to a massive 616 after they elected to bat first at the Reliance Cricket Stadium in Vadodara. With only two days of play, his innings has already emerged as one of the standout performances of this round.

Batting at No. 3, Priyanshu Moliya arrived after Baroda lost an early wicket on Day 1 of the Ranji Trophy 2026-27 Round 3. The right-hander kept his cool amid regular dismissals, with Baroda slipping to 197/6 before he brought up his fourth first-class century.

Resuming Day 2 at 259/6, Moliya dismantled Jammu and Kashmir's bowling attack, stitching together a massive 232-run seventh-wicket partnership with Mahesh Pithiya, who also brought up his maiden first-class century during the stand.

Moliya continued his dominance, crossing 200 before completing a monumental unbeaten 321 off 492 balls, featuring 36 boundaries and one six. His marathon knock powered Baroda to 616 before they were bowled out.

Priyanshu Moliya's unbeaten 321 against Jammu and Kashmir made him the highest individual scorer for Baroda in first-class cricket. He surpassed Gul Mohammad's record of 319, set against Holkar in 1947.

The 21-year-old also became only the second Baroda batter to score a first-class triple century. Moliya made his debut at 17, scoring two centuries in his maiden season and now fulfilling that early promise with an even more remarkable performance.
