Madhya Pradesh and the Rest of India (ROI) are set to lock horns in the Irani Cup 2022-23 match slated to start on Wednesday, March 1 at Captain Roop Singh Stadium in Gwalior.

Rest of India will be captained by Mayank Agarwal, who will also be looking to put in a strong showing to break back into the national team. ROI were earlier dealt with a blow after Sarfaraz Khan was ruled out due to a finger injury.

Baba Indrajith was roped in as a replacement for Sarfaraz, who has been a prolific run-scorer in India’s domestic circuit. Spinner Mayank Markande also won’t be a part of the upcoming first-class match.

Markande sustained an injury on his right index finger during training. Mumbai all-rounder Shams Mulani was included as his replacement by the All-India Senior Selection Committee.

The focus will be on Rajat Patidar, who got his maiden India call-up against South Africa last year. The likes of Venkatesh Iyer, Avesh Khan and Kumar Kartikeya need to step up for Madhya Pradesh as well.
