Shubman Gill To Lead North Zone In Duleep Trophy: Check Squad

Shubman Gill, India's Test captain, is set to lead the North Zone in the Duleep Trophy. His participation in the entire tournament is uncertain as he is part of BCCI's plans for the Asia Cup. Despite not being a T20I regular, he might team up with Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson or Abhishek Sharma. If unavailable, Shubham Rohilla will replace him.

Gill recently showcased his skills in the Test series against England, scoring 754 runs. This achievement marks the highest by an Indian cricketer in a Test series this century. Under his leadership, India performed admirably, ending the series in a 2-2 draw. His debut as Test captain was noteworthy and promising for future matches.

The North Zone squad for the Duleep Trophy includes several notable players. Arshdeep Singh, who didn't play in the England series despite being part of the squad, has been called up. Harshit Rana also joins after being released from the Test series against Australia and England's first Test.

Other players named are Ayush Badoni, Yudhvir Singh Charak, Yash Dhull, and Anshul Kamboj. Anshul played against England but was dropped after one game due to an unimpressive performance. The Duleep Trophy offers him a chance to regain his place in India's home calendar squad.
