Actually, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the names of the four teams for the Duleep Trophy 2024. This time many big players will also be seen playing in this tournament.

In such a situation, Abhinyu Easwaran has been made the captain of the team.

Ishwaran has been made the captain of Team 'B' in the Duleep Trophy and now he will be seen leading this team. Let us tell you that Ishwaran has not played any Test match for Team India till now and even after this he has been made the captain.

Iswaran's career

If we look at Ishwaran's performance in domestic cricket, it has been excellent. This player has played a total of 94 first class matches so far, in which he has scored 7006 runs at an average of 47.65. During this period, 23 centuries and 29 half-centuries have come from his bat.

Let us tell you that he was once selected in Team India but this player did not get a chance to make his debut. Ishwaran has scored runs consistently in domestic cricket but despite this he did not get a chance to play for Team India.

However, now this player has been appointed captain and this has been done after Gambhir became the head coach. In such a situation, now it will be interesting to see whether he gets a place in the Indian team in the coming time or not but before that he will have to perform well in this tournament.
