Narayan Jagadeesan’s 277: A New Benchmark in List A Cricket

Narayan Jagadeesan created history in Indian domestic cricket by smashing 277 runs in a List A match, breaking Rohit Sharma’s record of 264. His powerful innings, filled with 25 fours and 15 sixes, helped Tamil Nadu post 506 runs — the highest team total in Indian one-day history — and strengthened his case for an India debut.

Narayan Jagadeesan has created history in Indian domestic cricket by smashing an incredible 277 runs in a List A match, breaking Rohit Sharma’s long-standing record of 264. The Tamil Nadu batter reached this milestone in just 141 balls, playing one of the most dominant innings ever seen at this level. His knock was filled with clean hitting and supreme confidence, including 25 fours and 15 sixes that completely demolished the opposition bowling attack.

Playing for Tamil Nadu, Jagadeesan’s innings helped his team post a massive total of 506 runs — the highest in Indian domestic one-day cricket. He built a monumental partnership of 416 runs with Sai Sudharsan, who also contributed a brilliant 154. Together, the pair made batting look effortless, breaking multiple records along the way and showcasing Tamil Nadu’s batting depth and class.

This performance has once again put Jagadeesan in the spotlight. Known for his consistency in the domestic circuit, he has been a key figure for Tamil Nadu across formats and has also represented Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL. Despite his strong domestic record, he is still waiting for a full India call-up — something this innings could change. His ability to stay composed, accelerate when needed, and maintain a high strike rate throughout such a long innings proves that he’s ready for bigger challenges.

Jagadeesan’s record-breaking 277 is more than just numbers — it’s a statement of intent. It reflects his growth, hunger, and determination to wear the Indian jersey one day. With such extraordinary performances, it’s only a matter of time before selectors take notice and give him the opportunity he truly deserves. This knock will be remembered as one of the finest ever in Indian List A history and a perfect example of what hard work and patience can achieve.
