Hubballi, Feb 28: Jammu and Kashmir etched their name in the history books by clinching their maiden Ranji Trophy title on the basis of a first-innings lead, after the final against Karnataka ended in a draw here on Saturday.
\nHaving secured a massive 291-run lead on Friday, J&K tightened their grip on the contest on the fifth and final day with another commanding batting display.
\nResuming their second innings at 186 for four, Qamran Iqbal, who was unbeaten on 94 overnight, and Sahil Lotra, who was on 16, completed well-crafted hundreds as J&K swelled their overall lead to 633 runs.
\nIqbal and Lotra were batting on 160 and 101 respectively, with J&K at 342\/4, when the the two captains agreed to shake hands.
\nThe side was 285 for four at lunch on day five.

\nJ&K opted not to enforce the follow-on and instead batted Karnataka out of the contest.
\nThe victory marks Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s first-ever Ranji Trophy title, a landmark achievement in the region\u2019s cricketing journey since it started playing the tournament 67 years ago.
