<h2>Here is a look at the top 3 run-getters of the Irani Cup 2026:</h2>
<h3>3. Paras Dogra (Jammu and Kashmir)</h3>
<p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/paras-dogra/"><strong>Paras Dogra</strong></a> was J&amp;K's top scorer in the first innings, contributing 75 off 143 balls with 6 fours and 1 six at a strike rate of 52.44. He was dismissed caught Mukesh Kumar off the bowling of Mukesh Choudhary. Dogra's partnership of 101 runs with Abdul Samad for the fifth wicket was a key passage of play in J&amp;K's first innings.</p>
<p>His steady knock provided the backbone of J&amp;K's batting effort in the match, also helping his side take a crucial first-innings lead. However, the second innings was a nightmarish one, not just for Dogra but for the entire J&amp;K line-up. Dogra was dismissed for a duck in the fourth innings on Day 4 of the competition, as the team couldn't stand their guard for more than a full session.</p>
<p><span>&nbsp;</span></p>
<h3>2. Abdul Samad (Jammu and Kashmir)</h3>
<p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.crictracker.com/cricket-players/abdul-samad/"><strong>Abdul Samad</strong></a> from J&amp;K was the second-highest run-getter in the match. He scored 57 off 88 balls in J&amp;K's first innings, hitting 5 fours and 1 six at a strike rate of 64.77, before being dismissed caught Sanat Sangwan off the bowling of Mukesh Kumar. Samad shared a 101-run fifth-wicket partnership with Paras Dogra during that innings, which was one of the more significant stands for J&amp;K.</p>
<p>He managed 20 runs in his second innings, finishing the match with 77 runs from two innings at an average of 38.50 and a strike rate of 59.23. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough, as his side, the defending champions of the Ranji Trophy, failed to chase the target set by Pant &amp; Co., getting bundled out for a paltry score of 111 in reply.</p>
