Mumbai, Nov 1:
Senior players Sachin Tendulkar and Zaheer Khan will look to regain their lost form ahead of the high-profile four-Test series between India and England when they star in Mumbai’s campaign against Railways in the Ranji Trophy here tomorrow.
While Tendulkar will represent his home association for the first time since the final against UP at Hyderabad in 2009, Zaheer had played a few away games last season to test his match fitness ahead of getting back into the international arena after an injury lay-off.
However, both are going through a lean patch, which can make a huge impact on India’s chances against the touring English team, who had beaten Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s men 4-0 in August, last year.
The duo will look to boost Mumbai, who are already at full strength and starting as clear favourites against Railways, who have old war horse Sanjay Bangar, captain, and Murali Kartik, to bank upon for holding up the challenge against the might of the home side.(PTI)
