Chennai Super Kings (CSK) wicketkeeper-batter Urvil Patel has produced another remarkable batting performance, this time in red-ball cricket. The right-hander smashed his maiden first-class double century while representing Gujarat against Kerala in the Ranji Trophy 2026-27 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on November 3.

Urvil remained unbeaten on 210 off 227 deliveries, striking 17 fours and six sixes. His innings came at a crucial stage after Gujarat had lost five wickets for 189 runs. The batter’s counter-attacking approach helped his side take control of the contest and gave cricket fans another glimpse of his remarkable hitting ability.

Urvil Patel rescues Gujarat with maiden first-class double century

Coming in at number six, Urvil joined Vishal Jayswal at the crease and helped Gujarat recover through a crucial 179-run partnership for the sixth wicket. Jayswal contributed 77 off 120 balls before being run out. Urvil reached his century in just 91 deliveries and continued his aggressive approach after crossing the milestone.

He brought up his double century in 214 balls, completing a memorable innings that put Gujarat in a commanding position. Gujarat eventually declared their first innings at 534/8, with Urvil unbeaten on 210. Earlier, Aarya Desai had also made a valuable contribution with 95, while Abhishek Desai scored 42.

Urvil adds another milestone to his record-breaking career

The double century adds another major achievement to Urvil’s growing domestic career. He had already made headlines in November 2024 by smashing a 28-ball century against Tripura in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, recording the fastest T20 hundred by an Indian batter.

The wicketkeeper-batter also equalled the record for the fastest half-century in IPL history during the 2026 season. Playing for CSK against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), he reached the milestone in just 13 balls. His latest performance against Kerala further highlights his ability to dominate bowling attacks across formats.
