Sports News : The Indian team does not have to play any international match for the next one month. That is why all the senior players of Team India have been seen playing domestic cricket. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will play in the Duleep Trophy. Star batsman Shreyas Iyer will play for Mumbai in the Buchi Babu tournament. Sarfaraz Khan is the captain of Mumbai for the Buchi Babu tournament. He has got the responsibility of captaincy in place of Ajinkya Rahane because Rahane is currently playing county cricket in England. 

Shreyas Iyer will play in the Buchi Babu tournament

Shreyas Iyer will be available for one match for Mumbai in the upcoming Buchi Babu Invitational Tournament, starting at four venues in Tamil Nadu. Iyer will be available for Mumbai's second-round match to be played in Coimbatore from August 27 to 30. Indian T20 team captain Suryakumar Yadav will also play in this match. Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) joint secretary Deepak Patil said in a release that Shreyas Iyer will play for Mumbai in the Buchi Babu Invitational Tournament organized by the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association. He will play against Jammu and Kashmir in Coimbatore from August 27.

Sarfaraz Khan is the captain

Suryakumar Yadav will also play for Mumbai in the Buchi Babu tournament. The command of the team has been handed over to Sarfaraz Khan, who has played 3 Test matches. Iyer is currently out of the central contract list of the Board of Control for Cricket in India. Earlier this year, he played two Test matches against England. Then he could not play the rest of the matches due to a back problem. But he made a comeback in the semi-finals and finals of the Ranji Trophy tournament in early March. Then he participated in the ODI series against Sri Lanka. 

The Indian team has to play 10 Test matches against Bangladesh, New Zealand and Australia in the coming time. In such a situation, Shreyas Iyer would like to get into a good rhythm by playing domestic cricket. Teams of Madhya Pradesh, Delhi, Haryana, Hyderabad, Bengal, Mumbai, Jammu and Kashmir, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh and Gujarat along with TNCA-11 and TNCA President-11 will participate in the Buchi Babu Invitation Tournament. This tournament, played in red ball format, will be organized in Tirunelveli, Coimbatore, Salem and Natham.
