4 Players to watch out for in the Ranji Trophy game between Bengal and Punjab

Markande was retained by the Mumbai Indians for the 2019 edition of the IPL due to his impressive show in the previous edition. After his show in the IPL, Maryanke made a name for himself in the domestic circuit finding a place in the Punjab team in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

After his consistent performances, Markande was named in the Indian squad for the Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2018 where he emerged as the leading wicket-taker of the tournament.
