DULEEP TROPHY Semifals: All eyes on Shreyas Iyer as redemption of the eyes of the dough after the Snob Asia Cup | Cricket news
Bengaluru: Most of the discussions on the Asian Cup team announced last month focused on a player who did not appear in the list of 20 (including five reserves) – Shreyas Iyer.The prolific drummer has more experience, expertise and adaptability than many chosen for the tournament in Dubai, but he does not appear in the T20 diagram of the reflection group. Iyer himself has maintained a studious silence.But the spotlights will be firmly on him when he enters the field for the western area against the central area in the semi-finals of the Duleep trophy from Thursday.With a limited series and tests against the Antilles and South Africa and the ODI and T20 series against Australia, the 30 -year -old has a lot to play.Far from Iyer, the western area has a starry program with Yashasvi Jaiswal, which blown hot and cold in England – it was two centuries, an equal number of 50s and several low scores in 10 sleeves – will seek to obtain a red ball game to its credit.Their skipper Shardul Thakur will seek to be correct after mediocre returns in the two tests he presented in England. The other eminent players include Tanush Kotian, Tushar Deshpande and Ruturaj Gaikwad.Central will not be easy meat for the dominant western area with a stick. While West is well rested, Central was stretched during the second round by zone northeast in the quarter-final. The Danish Melewar struck a current double ton, while Rajat Patidar and Shubam Sharma were other centurions. Patidar, who leads the team in the absence of Jurel, scored 125 and 66 during the previous release and will again play a central role for central.Their main questions – Khaleel Ahmed and Deepak Chahar, will seek to be among the counters.There was a series of injury problems with the central zone jurel, Vyshak Vijaykumar de South and Sarfaraz Khan, of the western area, being among the eminent players who will be seated in the semi-finals. They were replaced by Akshay Wadkar, V Koushik and Shivalik Sharma respectively.
South against northern
In the other last competition, South takes the northern zone with both games to chop and change their team due to injuries and non-deputy players.Unlike previous years, when there was a strong presence of players from the dominant states of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, this edition focuses on Kerala players. In the absence of Tilak Varma to Asia in Asia, the south is led by Mohammed Azharuddeen, who gathered the Kerala in a historic appearance of Ranji Trophy last season.South has a handful of young people with some older battle horses in the mixture.North, on the other hand, will be without pacers Arshdeep Rana and Harshit Rana, which makes it an equal competition. That said, North will have the advantage, since they played the match of the quarter -finals on the same field at the Center of Excellence of the New BCCI Center.
