Ravindra Jadeja is the only batsman to score three triple centuries in the Ranji Trophy.

In cricket, a batsman reaches a triple century if they scores 300 or more runs in a single innings. The Ranji Trophy is the premier first-class cricket championship played in India. Conducted by the Board of Control for Cricket in India, it was founded in 1934 as "The Cricket Championship of India".[1][2] As of February 2016, a triple century has been scored on 35 occasions by 30 different batsmen in the Ranji Trophy.[3]

The first triple century in the Ranji Trophy was scored by Maharashtra's Vijay Hazare against Baroda in the 1939–40 season.[3][4] As of February 2016, the most recent triple century in the tournament was scored by Karun Nair from Karnataka, who made 328 runs against Tamil Nadu in the 2014–15 season final.[3][5] The highest score in the competition was made by B. B. Nimbalkar, who scored 443 runs not out for Maharashtra against Kathiawar in the 1948–49 season. It is the only instance of a quadruple century in the tournament.[3][6] The highest number of triple centuries are scored by Ravindra Jadeja, who has reached the milestone three times while playing for Saurashtra.[7] Jadeja is followed by V. V. S. Laxman, Cheteshwar Pujara, and Wasim Jaffer, with two triple centuries each.[3] Tamil Nadu's Woorkeri Raman and Arjan Kripal Singh are the only two batsmen to score triple centuries in the same innings.[3] As of February 2016, four batsmen have scored 290–299 runs in an innings, and two of them were not out.[3]

Seven centuries have been made by players of Mumbai, which is more than any other team.[3] Goa, Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra and Saurashtra have conceded the greatest number of centuries, with three each.[3] Brabourne Stadium and Wankhede Stadium, both in Mumbai, have had three Ranji Trophy triple centuries scored at them each, more than any other ground.[3]
