Can West Indies find a way to halt India's home juggernaut?
India have a 42-9 record at home since last losing back-to-back T20Is at home
Former India pacer Ajit Agarkar reminisces about his connection to Ranchi as T20I cricket returns to the city. While he is no longer part of the selection committee, Agarkar has a memorable experience from 2023 when he conducted the pitch report for India's T20I against New Zealand. As part of the broadcast, Agarkar assessed the playing conditions, including the dimensions of the ground, grass cover, and potential dew impact.
He described the pitch as excellent, with even grass coverage and promising help from the new ball, noting that the dew factor had been minimized through careful outfield grass management. With Agarkar's three-year tenure as chairman of selectors concluding, the BCCI is now seeking applications to fill the vacant position.
