How long did Rohan Gavaskar play for the Ranji trophy?

Understanding that he wouldn’t get many opportunities with the Mumbai team, Rohan made a switch from Mumbai to Bengal. Gavaskar was marginally successful as he played 117 first-class matches for them for over a decade. Rohan was selected as the skipper of the Bengal team for the 2001-02 Ranji Trophy season. The decision backfired as Bengal had two unsuccessful seasons under his leadership.
