The 2025 Irani Cup was a well-fought competition between the reigning Ranji Trophy champions, Vidarbha, and the Rest of India. But had on-field umpires Kannur Swaroopanand and Rohan Pandit not acted quickly, an actual fight would have broken out in the Irani Cup.
Fight during Irani Cup
In the 63rd over of the fourth innings, Yash Dhull was caught at third man by Atharva Taide. Rest of India rejoiced as they were just 3 wickets away from clinching the Irani Cup. Yash Thakur was ecstatic after taking his first wicket of the innings and fifth of the match.
Dhull was batting at 92 and missed out on a deserved hundred. He was gutted. Thakur’s celebration hurt the batter from Delhi who spoke something to the fast bowler on his way back. Instead of joining his teammate after taking the wicket, Thakur charged towards Dhull.

— Nihari Korma (@NihariVsKorma) October 5, 2025The batter stood at the crease calmly while Thakur came towards him. The bowler from Vidarbha looked very agitated and it seemed like a physical fight between the two would happen. Just then, the umpires came in between the two. They kept exchanging words and other Vidarbha players also tried to tone things down.
Thakur was taken away by his teammates, while Dhull was sent to the pavillion by the umpire. But they kept sharing glances while walking away. Had the umpires not gotten in time, things could have been much worse. Luckily, they handled it well.
The incident didn’t change how the match went as in the next 10 overs, Vidarbha beat Rest of India to win the Irani Cup.
