The South Zone announced its full squad on Saturday, with Tilak Varma as the team leader. It will be his back-to-back leadership stints, as he was the vice-captain of the India National Cricket Team during the T20I series against Zimbabwe.
While Varma and Jagadeeshan are well capable of scoring runs with a good strike rate, Nair, Ravichandran, and Bhui are expected to play long-standing knocks for the team. The previous domestic season had a significant impact on Jagadeeshan and Ravichandran. They will try to continue the same form from the beginning of another domestic season.
Eyes will be on the experienced batter Karun Nair
This year's Duleep Trophy will be special as it is set to replace the old divisional format, with a total of six teams participating. As South Zone was the finalists in the previous season, they will start their campaign on August 30 in the semifinal, while the zonal competition begins on August 23.
Since then, the batter who has a triple hundred in Tests has remained out of the team. Because of the demands of modern-day cricket, like many batters, Nair also modifies his batting style, adding more flair to score runs at a quick pace. His batting approach will be interesting to see in the upcoming domestic season.
Tilak Varma will want to redeem his form
South Zone squad for Duleep Trophy 2026-27: Tilak Varma (captain), Ricky Bhui (vice-captain), Abhinav Tejrana, SK Rashid, K Himteja, R Smaran, N Jagadeesan, Karun Nair, T Thyagarajan, Shreyas Gopal, K Sai Teja, T Vijay, V Kavirappa and Aman Khan.
