2007–08 Indian domestic cricket season

The 2007–08 season is Hyderabad cricket team's 74th competitive season. The Hyderabad cricket team is senior men's domestic cricket team based in the city of Hyderabad, India, run by the Hyderabad Cricket Association. They represent the region of Telangana in the state of Andhra Pradesh in domestic competitions.

Background[edit]

In the beginning of the season, seven Ranji players signed up to play in Indian Cricket League (ICL), a private cricket league funded by Zee Entertainment Enterprises but not approved by Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI).[1][2] Earlier, BCCI said that the players signed with ICL will be banned for life from playing in India and also barred the ICL players from taking part in all domestic tournaments which led to the exclusion of ICL players from Hyderabad squad.[3] The list include former India U-19 captain, Ambati Rayudu. The others were Devishetty Vinay Kumar, Ibrahim Khaleel, Anirudh Singh, Shashank Nag, Inder Shekar Reddy and Kaushik Reddy.[4] The luring of domestic players by ICL also led BCCI to counter the rebel T20 league by starting their own franchise-based T20 competition called Indian Premier League whose first season was slated to start in April 2008.[5][6]

Vijay Hazare Trophy[edit]

The Hyderabad team, led by Arjun Yadav, began their campaign in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, previously known as the Ranji One-Day Trophy, a List-A cricket tournament in India, with a loss against the Kerala at Chennai on 26 February 2008.[11][29] Sarvesh Kumar's five wicket haul helped the Hyderabad to bowl out Kerala for 237 but the disciplined bowling effort from the Kerala ensured their win by 7 runs despite the half-century from Abhinav Kumar for the Hyderabad.[29] The Hyderabad lost their second match to the Karnataka as Bharat Chipli's century and Vinay Kumar's all-round contribution with both bat and ball ensured a 111 run for the Karnataka.[30] The Hyderabad suffered their third loss in as many games as three-wicket haul from Ravichandran Ashwin and C. Ganapathy helped the Tamil Nadu restrict the Hyderabad for 236 despite Abhinav Kumar's 93 while century from Murali Vijay ensured the Tamil Nadu a two-wicket win.[31] The Hyderabad finally earned their first win in the tournament with a 62-run win over the Goa as Anoop Pai's maiden List-A century along with the half-century from Arjun Yadav helped the Hyderabad post 284 while Dwaraka Ravi Teja and Mohammed Shakeer shared seven wickets between them to bowl out Goa for 222 despite the half-century from Ajay Ratra.[32] A century from Abhinav Kumar and three-wicket haul from Ravi Teja ensured the Hyderabad win over the Andhra by 95 runs though they finished third in the South Zone and failed to qualify for the knockout stage with two wins and three losses.[33][34]
