== History ==
[[Jharkhand State Cricket Association]] was formed on November 15, 2000 and the team made its [[first-class cricket|first-class]] debut in November 2004 against [[Saurashtra cricket team|Saurashtra]] in the [[Ranji Trophy|2004/05 Ranji Trophy]] at [[Madhavrao Scindia Cricket Ground]], [[Rajkot]].

The team won the [[Vijay Hazare Trophy|2010/11 Vijay Harare Trophy]] against [[Gujarat cricket team|Gujarat]] at the [[Holkar Cricket Stadium]] in [[Indore]]. Jharkhand batted first and were boosted by several useful contributions from their batsmen while Gujarat in their reply failed to measure up against a dominating bowling performance to sink to a 159-run defeat.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/vijay-hazare-trophy-2010-11-471506/gujarat-vs-jharkhand-final-471570/match-report|title=Nadeem stars in Jharkhand's title win|website=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=17 April 2021}}</ref>
