Bengaluru: If it's the business end of the Ranji Trophy, Mumbai are usually involved and, given their tremendous success in the tournament, have a rivalry going with just about every opposition.
Mumbai's rivalry with Madhya Pradesh - the other finalists whom they will play at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium starting Wednesday - has a storied history. It dates back some 78 years, when the erstwhile Bombay and Holkar faced each other in the 1944-45 final at the Brabourne stadium.
Bombay, led by Vijay Merchant, won the title and, over the next decade, the teams met again three times in the title clash. Over the years, Mumbai took their tally of titles to a staggering 41, while Holkar won the trophy four times and last appeared in the final in 1998-99 as Madya Pradesh.
