Mumbai: The Ranji Trophy, beginning on Monday, will see some keen tussles in the first round with two-time defending champions Mumbai taking on Saurashtra in the Elite Group Super League here.
Mumbai beat Karnataka in a thrilling final last year to claim a record 39th Ranji Trophy title. But the champion team will have to be more consistent with the bat and the ball to stay on the top this season.
Mumbai’s middle-order has not lived up to expectations last year and barring Ajinkya Rahane and Wasim Jaffer, none of the batsmen could score with consistency.
Rohit Sharma, who has been slipping out of international reckoning, will have to prove his worth this season. It could be a make-or-break season for the classy batsman who many believe is a future middle order mainstay of the Indian team.
