When asked why Vidarbha players, who were celebrating the Ranji Trophy final against Kerala at the VCA Jamtha ground, are not progressing at the national level despite the fact that they are winning the titles Ghani said, "Vidarbha team, made up of young and experienced players, won 8 out of 10 matches to win the Ranji Trophy for the third time. They dominated the opposing team in every match. This is an unforgettable moment for me. The grudge of last year's defeat has gone away today. I am confident that our players will start appearing in India A and the national team from now on."

This is the result of the players' hard work throughout the year, and there has been a remarkable improvement in fielding. I have high expectations from Danish Malewar, Yash Rathod and Harsh Dubey, and I am confident that these three faces will shine in big matches in the coming days.

When asked whether Vidarbha would be ready to play Ranji and other first-class matches on its own after winning three titles without the help of professional players (current team members Karun Nair and Dhruv Shorey), Ghani said, "That time has not come yet." He indicated that Vidarbha would play with professional players for at least a few more years.
