Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024 Squads: Abhishek Sharma captained Punjab in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024. Under his captaincy, the Punjab team could not reach the knockout stage. Despite this, Punjab Cricket Association (PCA) has also expressed confidence in Abhishek for Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024. Abhishek has made his international debut for India, while he was the highest run-scorer for Punjab in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024. He had scored 255 runs in 7 matches.
Abhishek Sharma will now be seen captaining the Punjab team equipped with big and experienced stars in the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Famous stars like Prabhsimran Singh, Mayank Markande, Ramandeep Singh and Nehal Wadhera will be part of the Punjab team. Let us tell you that Vijay Hazare Trophy will be played in 50-over format and this tournament will start from 21st December and will run till 18th January. The biggest star of the team will be Arshdeep Singh, who has been the highest wicket-taker for India in the last two T20 World Cup tournaments.
It can be said that this is a shocking decision that instead of Arshdeep, the Punjab team has made Abhishek Sharma the captain. But this decision was probably taken because Arshdeep had not played all the matches for Punjab in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Punjab team has been placed in Group C along with Nagaland, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Saurashtra, Puducherry, Arunachal Pradesh and Karnataka. Let us tell you that Punjab team has never reached the final of Vijay Hazare Trophy after the 2014-2015 season. Last season, Punjab had to be content with fifth place in Group E.
Punjab’s squad for Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024: Abhishek Sharma, Anmolpreet Singh, Naman Dhir, Prabhsimran Singh, Ramandeep Singh, Nehal Wadhera, Sanveer Singh, Arshdeep Singh, Baltej Singh, Gurnoon Brar, Harpreet Brar, Mayank Markande, Ashwani Kumar, Sohrab Dhaliwal, Pratisat Dutta, Jaskaranveer Singh, Jasinder Singh. , Kunwar Kukreja, Anmol Malhotra, Pukhraj Mann, Sahil Khan, Raghu Ghivam Sharma.
