lol so many players getting chances!! Looks like almost everyone who's done well in even one single game is getting to play India A / Challenger trophy. No one can complan of not being given his opportunity now. CLT20 being played at the same time has helped create vacant spots for many players.

I think they have their next set of players identified. Just trying to create a larger pool IMO. Barring some nams, almost all those named in the various squads deserve to there.

Ishank Jaggi replaces injured Saurabh Tiwary

The selectors have rectified an error they had made in selecting the injured Saurabh Tiwary for the upcoming Challenger Trophy. Tiwary had undergone a shoulder operation about three weeks ago, and is not expected to take field for the next month or so. His Jharkhand team-mate, Ishank Jaggi, replaced him in the India Red squad. Interestingly, Jaggi had been involved in a somewhat similar fiasco in the past. Two years ago, after having been named to represent Rest of India in the Irani Cup, Jaggi was withdrawn on fitness ground. The Jharkhand Cricket Association took exception to that BCCI explanation, and reported that Jaggi had been fit and been part of the Jharkhand Ranji preparatory camp. K Srikkanth led the selection panel back then. This time, though, the selectors, led by Sandeep Patil, could be given some leeway. This year's Challenger Trophy will be played during an extremely busy period for Indian fringe players. Four sets of Indian cricketers were ruled out of selection because of the clashing Champions League T20. Another A team was selected to represent India A against West Indies A, which, too, clashes with the Challenger Trophy. In all, the selectors picked five teams on September 10: India A for one-dayers, India A for the first four-day game, India A for the following two four-day games and two Challenger sides.

Delhi vs India Blue - Who will win Let's go Delhi. If only Dhawan was available Delhi team would have had Shikhar, Gautam, Sehwag, Kohli, Chand in the line up. But still it's pretty damn strong. Should be a godo game today.

[namasteji1]

Delhi as Chand hits hundreds in crucial matches as always!

Nayar has had a fine tournament with the bat. It has been surprising, given the paucity of medium pace allrounders in India, that he hasn't been given chances in the last 2 years. He had a few chances in the past, but he didn't get to bat and wasn't given the ball enough, and all this was before he improved tremendously. Much better than overrated "allrounders" like the Pathan bros.

And Bhatia is yet another fine performer, who lost out for mysterious reasons.
