Mumbai, the most dominant outfit in Indian domestic cricket, defeated Vidarbha by 169 runs in the Ranji Trophy 2023-24 final to win their 42nd title and earned the right to take on an ensemble team from the rest of the country.
The Irani Cup 2024-25 fixture was originally set to be held in Mumbai but eventually moved to Lucknow due to adverse weather conditions in the coastal city.
While former India captain Ajinkya Rahane will lead Mumbai, Ruturaj Gaikwad will lead the Rest of the India squad. Sarfaraz Khan, Dhruv Jurel and Yash Dayal were on Monday released from the Indian Test side (vs Bangladesh) to participate in the Irani Cup in Lucknow.
For the uninitiated, Irani Cup is a seasonal First-Class match. This one-off match gets its name from ZR Irani, a long-time serving president and treasurer of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) right from the day of its inception (1928) till his death in 1970.
