In a Cooch Behar Trophy game against Jammu and Kashmir, Samit Dravid, cricket legend Rahul Dravid's son, delivered a standout batting performance, scoring 98 runs and contributing significantly to Karnataka's dominant victory by an innings and 130 runs.

A video highlighting Samit's captivating shots quickly gained traction on social media, highlighting his cricketing talent.

In a prior encounter against Uttar Pradesh, Samit posted scores of 27 and 28.

Unlike his dad who made the No. 3 spot his own, Samit, batting at No. 5, forged a partnership with Karthikeya KP, contributing to an impressive 233-run stand for the fourth wicket. Karthikeya excelled as the top-scorer, amassing 163 runs off 175 balls.

Jammu and Kashmir, who posted a modest 170 in their first innings, were unable to make Karnataka bat again, resulting in a decisive victory by an innings margin.
