The Indian Test team is in the Caribbean. An U-23 team in the guise of India ‘A’ has landed in Colombo for the Emerging Teams Asia Cup. Yet, a plethora of batting stars will line up to do battle in the final of the season’s first domestic competition—Duleep Trophy.
In a repeat of last year’s title clash, defending champions West Zone take on hosts South in the five-day game at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium from Wednesday, Priyank Panchal’s men confident they have the batting resources to pull off an encore. South, under Hanuma Vihari, might not boast the same on-paper batting wealth, but they have an excellent pace attack marshalled by local lads Vidwath Kaverappa and Vyshak Vijaykumar, both coming off five-wicket hauls in the thrilling semi-final win over North. This should be a cracking contest.
