cricketbuzztoday: Virat kohli is one of the greatest batters that cricket has ever produced. He is regarded as the greatest of the modern-day crickets by legendary cricketers like Vivian Richards, Wasim Akram, Ricky Ponting, etc. He has not featured in domestic cricket for long. But he is going to feature in the upcoming Ranji Trophy playing for Delhi.
The Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) has released a statement that Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, and Pacer Navdeep Saini will play in the team for the Ranji Trophy 2024-25. Lanky Pancer Ishant Sharma who played the last edition of the trophy, is going to miss out this time.
DDCA Adds Kohli And Pant To Probable Players List
A probable players list of 84 players including kohli and Pant has been released by the DDCA. Out of touch, Virat seems to be playing in the biggest Indian Domestic Circuit tournament.
The tournament will kick start on October 11. Delhi will be taking on Chandigarh in its opening match. Virat Kohli has been out of form lately. He will be looking to grind hard in the domestic circuit to regain his form. Form is temporary but class is permanent. Virat will regain his form for sure.
Virat Plays In Ranji Trophy After New Zealand Series
A three-Test Match series between New Zealand and India is scheduled to start on October 16. Thus there is a possibility that Virat and Pant play in the Ranjhi trophy. Although it is not yet sure if they will play in the Ranji trophy, their inclusion in the probable players list has created a buzz among fans.
The DDCA’s release said “A fitness test for the selected players will take place on September 26, 2024. Players currently on international duty are exempt from this fitness test.”
The last time Virat played in the Ranji Trophy was way back in the 2012-13 season. It is the first time since 2018 that he has been named in the probable list for Delhi. The Ranji Trophy will be on after New Zealand is over so Virat may join his time after the series.
India will be going to South Africa for a T20i series and Virat has already announced from T20 cricket. Thus Ranji Trophy is an option for Virat to regain his form.
