Big Picture
Not for the first time a game of first-class season in India will be reduced domestic SideShow. Last year, the Irani Cup clashed with Australia two-test series in India, and this time is fighting with the enemy of the final four days of play Twenty20 cricket. It is not much of a struggle the hearts of most cricket fans in India - which seems to have been solved - but to provide the best team in the field.
Many of those who would probably have found a place in the rest of India team for Irani Cup represents their IPL franchises in the Champions League Twenty20. They have to prove a point in Test cricket, Suresh Raina and Virat Kohli, for example, are not available, and it is they who may have a future test - R Ashwin, S Badrinath.
The fans are not alone, not to mention the beginning of the period of the first class. Irani Cup could have done without the choice of a disaster that has raised questions about the options of skills and contacts with the state associations in proportion to the availability of players. At a time when the Indian domestic cricket is struggling to remain bound to the needs of future cricketers in the wake of other, more profitable alternatives, errors in selection and planning are more worrying.
Too many players with an eye on international missions in India in the coming months, it will be the first opportunity to draw attention. Seven members of the rest of India is a part of the squad for India ODI against England, and will also be interested in claiming their place in the home series against West Indies in November.
Ajinkya Rahan impressed within the limits of redemption games in England, and his election has much to your home's prolific career last season, during which he averaged 87 in the Ranji Trophy. It is part of a strong team with a stick to attack the line-up - Manish Pandey was the fourth longest-getter in 2010-11, Parthiv Patel Captain is back in the pack and Shikhar Dhawan opens Indians want to make a comeback the national team.
The players will be under consideration. Many would have liked to take a look at Aaron Varun seamer Jharkhand during the ODIs in England, and are likely to share the new ball Umesh Yadav, who had a good visit with players emerging in Australia and India is in the ODI team against England. Rahul Sharma, the legspinner, shone in the IPL this year and won a national call, and rejoined the race instead of the regular roulette in the absence of Harbhajan Singh.
Rest of the opposition in India, Rajasthan, made history by winning the Ranji Trophy for the first time, but struggled in the accumulation of this game. Pankaj Singh and Deepak Chahar, a seamer who took 20 wickets in three games of the Super League and 63 in the league of the plates, were injured. Pankaj came out - was replaced by Aniket Choudhary - Chahar while split the tape of his hand, but he can play. Aakash Chopra and veteran Hrishikesh Kanitkar are the key to the batting lineup and hopes Rajasthan Ashok Menari and Rashmi Parida, returning from injury, made in the order of the environment.
Players to watch out for ...
Abhinav Mukund made 620 runs in nine games Ranji Trophy last season, but had trouble moving the ball against the tests in the West Indies and England. Abhinav feels he might have had a better start to international cricket, and with series at home against West Indies to come, he's back batting-friendly conditions. Vacancies can fill out the return of Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir, but he will not want to waste time going into the groove should an opportunity arise.
Ashok Menari led India in 2010 World Cup 19, and after recovering from an injury, was chosen by the Rajasthan Ranji Trophy for the quarterfinals last season. He responded to his call for good in every round of the game. He had a career in the IPL, cracked 112 in a game score in the tournament for new players, and also dishes left arm spin. In a good rest of India line-up, and much depends on how Menari offers Rajasthan.
Pitch and conditions
The path to the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur would have a little grass on it and Parthiv did not notice. "We have three very good medium Pacers in the side of Varun Aaron, Umesh Yadav, R Vinay Kumar. So we are not worried about grass," he told PTI.
"This time, he has more grass on it. Last year proved to be a career game, but I hope it's a sport now," said the captain of the Rajasthan Kanitkar. "We have nothing to say and field BCCI president was there to supervise."
