The duo eventually fell only 15 runs short of the highest opening stand in Ranji Trophy history, held by Ravi Sehgal and Raman Lamba with 464 for Delhi against Himachal Pradesh in 1994-95. However, it is now the highest first-class partnership for Hyderabad for any wicket, surpassing the 386 between Akshath Reddy and Hanuma Vihari against Mumbai in 2012.
