Delhi reached 41/1 in reply to Railways' 241 all out at stumps on Day 1 at the Arun jaitley Stadium. Virat Kohli, who is playing his first Ranji Trophy match after more than 12 years, will come out to bat on Friday.

Railways are reeling in the second innings as they have lost seven wickets leaving Delhi on the verge of a win. Earlier, Delhi got all out for 374 in the first innings as Himanshu Sangwan took four wickets for Railways.

Virat Kohli made a sensational return to the Ranji Trophy after a 12-year hiatus. The 36-year-old appeared against the Railways at the Arun Jaitley Stadium but he failed with the bat again as he could only manage to rack up six runs before Himanshu Sangwan cleaned him up.

Barring Navdeep Saini, Himmat Singh is the only player in this squad, who has shared a dressing room with Virat Kohli.
