Arun Jaitley Stadium: Ayush Badoni is set to captain Delhi in their second Elite Group D Ranji Trophy fixture against Himachal Pradesh, starting at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday.

Despite being named in India A’s squad for the upcoming first four-day match against South Africa A at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru from October 30 to November 2, Badoni will feature in the Ranji Trophy contest before joining the squad.

“The reporting date of players based outside Bengaluru for the first India A game is October 28, which is also the day when second round of Ranji Trophy is over. This means that Badoni can wrap up the game and then fly to Bengaluru to join India A side,” said sources aware of the development to IANS on Friday.
