AHMEDABAD/ GUWAHATI, Feb 23: Dropped from the Indian Test team after his prolonged lean run with the bat, Ajinkya Rahane will be the centre of attention when heavyweights Mumbai play Goa in their Elite Group D Ranji Trophy game in Ahmedabad from Thursday.
Rahane did score a much-needed hundred (129) in their opener against Saurashtra, but that could not save his place in the Test squad for the upcoming two-match series against Sri Lanka.
The former India vice-captain, though, would like to continue in same fashion against a Goa attack that is not likely to pose many problems.
Ishant, Saini join Delhi squad
Meanwhile, Delhi will be bolstered by the return of India pacers Ishant Sharma and Navdeep Saini when they press for an outright win against Jharkhand in the Ranji Trophy Group H game in Guwahati on Thursday.
Delhi need an outright win to stay alive in the competition after conceding first innings lead to Tamil Nadu in their drawn opening match here. (PTI)
