Ranji Trophy 2015: In J&K, two teams on eve of opener

Published on: Wednesday 30 September 2015 //

WITH only a day to go for their opening Ranji Trophy encounter against Kerala, the Jammu & Kashmir (J&K) team led by new captain Mithun Manhas are going through their pre-match preparation in Srinagar. The Manhas-led squad had been announced by the Imran Reza Ansari-led faction a few days earlier. But in a sudden twist, the Farooq Abdulla group, who are presently embroiled in a bitter legal battle for the J&K Cricket Association chair with Ansari & Co, have also announced their squad, which doesn’t even include Manhas, and instead has Parvez Rasool at the helm.
