Rajkot: Saurashtra will miss the services of their key players — Cheteshwar Pujara and Ravindra Jadeja — as the Saurashtra Cricket Association on Saturday announced the 17-member squad for the first three Ranji Trophy matches.


Jaydev Shah, who has broken a record of playing most matches as a captain last year, will lead the side that will play its first game against Rajasthan at Chennai on October 6. The BCCI has decided that all matches of the Ranji Trophy season would be played at neutral venues.


Saurashtra head coach Sitanshu Kotak expressed happiness that two Saurashtra players, Jadeja and Pujara, are playing
for the national side against the visiting New Zealand team in the ongoing Test series.

“Any team wants to have these two players (Pujara and Jadeja) and the side will definitely miss their services. But we have some other new players, who have ability to deliver their best,” he said.
