Madhya Pradesh name 17-member Ranji Trophy squad; Rajat Patidar, Venkatesh Iyer unavailable ...Middle East

MP reached the quarter-finals last season after topping their group with three wins and four draws from seven matches. They will begin the new campaign against defending champions Jammu & Kashmir in Srinagar. MP lost to J&K by 56 runs in last season’s quarter-final at Holkar Stadium in Indore.

Shubham Sharma will take over the captaincy. The middle-order batter has previously led MP in the Ranji Trophy and can also contribute with his right-arm off-breaks.

Venkatesh Iyer will also miss the start of the campaign as he continues his recovery from right shoulder surgery. The left-handed batter and right-arm medium-pacer would have added depth in both departments.
