Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy-winning team off-spinner Tanush Kotian, 25, has been rewarded for his all-round performance with a spot in the Rajasthan Royals team for this IPL. Kotian replaced RR’s Australia leg-spinner Adam Zampa, who has pulled out of the tournament due to personal reasons.
Ranji reward
Kotian, who made 502 runs and claimed 29 scalps, played a crucial role in Mumbai’s 42nd Ranji Trophy triumph when they outclassed Vidarbha in the summit clash recently. He now wants to tap into RR’s India offie R Ashwin’s mind. “It will be a big opportunity for me. Yesterday [Thursday] I played a practice match with the RR players. Though it was a match for them, it was a selection trial for me. Almost all RR players were there and were very friendly with me.
