Though there still are two weeks left for Indian cricket team to come in action. The top players will make a comeback to cricket from September 5 (Thursday), which marks the start of Indian Domestic season of Duleep Trophy 2024-25.
As the national team is on a long break, this tournament will provide a rare chance for top level cricketers to play domestic cricket and help in rising talent to test themselves against the best ones in the country. Though players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, R Ashwin, and Ravindra Jadeja are on rest, other top players will still play in the competition.
Most of the regular players of the Test team will be in the game between India A and India B, which will be held on M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
The big news will be in the form of Rishabh Pant making his comeback to Test cricket after 21 months. Pant played the last match in Test a week before he had a car accident in December 2022.
Star Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal will yet again open the batting alongside the captain Abhimanyu Eashwaran. He is yet to play for the national team, but has shown the most consistent performance in Test cricket in domestic cricket, leading India A on a number of occasions in the previous team battles against shadow teams of other nations.
Sarfaraz is about to be the back support of the team. His younger brother Musheer will then bat at number three.
While the country is looking for a back-up for Hardik Pandya, Nitish Kumar Reddy will also possibly make a comeback from injury as he has been on a close watch as for a pace-bowling all-rounder.
since India is looking to transition from R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar and R Sai Kishore have come out as the leading players to come in their place in future.
The pace bowling unit is to consist of Mukesh Kumar and Navdeep Saini, along with Yash Dhyani who is supposed to make his debut soon ad he received his contract from BCCI earlier this year.
India B Predicted Playing XI: Abhimanyu Eashwaran (C), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Musheer Khan, Sarfaraz Khan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Rishabh Pant (WK), Washington Sundar, R Sai Kishore, Yash Dayal, Navdeep Saini, Mukesh Kumar
