New Delhi: a group of experienced domestic cricket, Cricket Ball Red famine of the last two years, could not hide their excitement after hearing that the main domestic tournament, Ranji Trophy will finally held in 2022, although in two phases.
Setting the 38 teams in the event of pandemic Covid-19 is a major challenge for the BCCI, whose secretary Jay Shah on Friday announced that the Ranji Trophy knockout may be held POST IPL June while the league stage can commence in the second week of February.
Staged events in some parts adds to the challenge but for Cricketers, which has faced financial instability and do not get the platform to move the Indian Cricket path stairs, playing with Cherry Red only important.
“Every domestic cricketer in the country is not thinking about the league or a knockout phase, no one thought about a bubble or covid, they just want to play.” Playing is everything now and the rest will follow, “said Star Saurashtra dough Sheldon Jackson, whose team has exceeded the defending champion as the defending champion, with the last red ball game in the country hold in March 2020.” We are all very grateful to the BCCI which has decided to do a red ball cricket even in these difficult times.
Only when you can play, you can think to climb stairs.
“No doubt the red ball is the toughest form of cricket but we all want to excel in it.
It will be a challenge at first but when the muscle memory back we should be fine,” he added.
The format of the event, each team must play five league games.
It can be completed in a month with a three-day break after every game.
Quarterfinals, semifinals and finals to be held in June, although the rains were at that time of the year.
Pacer Sandeep Sharma Chandigarh, which is an ordinary IPL, recently came down with Covid 19th after losing domestic T20 event due to dengue fever.
He was also pleased that will be played Ranji but said it would be a huge task for the BCCI to do so.
“Only 200 players who play IPL but domestic cricket played by many more.
It is important financially and to your career growth.
Since I had just recovered from Covid, I hope no exposed to the virus during the Ranji.” There are 38 teams and we have seen in the IPL, apart from all the stringent measures, the virus managed to enter the bubble.
In the Ranji Trophy, there will be more teams.
This is a major step on the board and a great challenge at the same time, “said Sharma.
Sidhesh Lad, who has not found a place in the Mumbai squad this season, said the players will finally have the chance to show off their talents.” This is good news for players like us.
It leads us to remain financially stable, also we have been striving for the opportunity during the last two or three seasons.
“We were able to show off our talent unless you are part of the IPL or the national team.
For the last two, three seasons nobody knows that I play cricket because no one had seen me play,” said Lad, who went to England last year to play club cricket.
He also played in the IPL.
Other stakeholders, including coaches and officials are also pleased that the “backbone” of Indian cricket will eventually walk and run.
“Holding it in two phases presents a different challenge but still a positive development, at least it happened.
Outline your offer of cricket is being affected due to lack of cricket balls red and the situation will get worse if Ranji not held.
For another year,” said coach Saurashtra Niraj Odedra.
“It looks like there will be a one month break between the league and knockout stages, so we can use that time to set up camp, to ensure that the players stay in the best shape for the knockout.” There will be rain in June Many parts of the country but KO may be set in North India but once again the weather will be a problem there too.
So BCCI needs to take into account all of this and received the last call, “he said.
IPL is expected to commence in the last week of March, which means the BCCI raced against time to make Ranji Trophy.
CEO Cricket Association Baroda Shishir Hattangadi said the board can go back to the format of three days for the trophy Ranji, as happened in the 70s and 80s to make sure the competition is completed in a limited time.
“It looks like they may have to change the format to restrict movement and travel.
Given that the number of days available before the IPL, they may have to go back to the three-day format in the league and knockout stages could be four days.
“Generation full play cricket cricket appeared three days.
It seems to be the best choice given the limited time frame,” he said.
