Duleep Trophy 2024 will have four teams which will be picked by Ajit Agarkar and Team. This tournament will help the selectors to also pick the squads for the upcoming Test tournaments. On that note, here, we take a look at the list of the four likely wicket-keepers for each team in the upcoming Duleep Trophy 2024.
1) Rishabh Pant
Pant is yet to play in the longer format after his long time away from the game. Operating in the red-ball format is a different challenge. It is the best option to judge him in the upcoming Duleep Trophy. This way, the selectors can gauge his form and fitness.
2) Dhruv Jurel
Dhruv Jurel is one of the likely wicket-keepers for each team in the upcoming Duleep Trophy 2024. He was India’s keeper in the last Test that India played. Hence, it is not a surprise that he will be one of the keepers. Anyways, he would be a part of the team either as a backup or as the first-choice keeper.
3) KS Bharat
KS Bharat lost his spot in the XI competition after his failures against England. Nevertheless, he is still one of the best wicket-keepers in India. He needs to get back to doing well with the bat. It will be a great chance for him to showcase his batting credentials to the new management in the upcoming Duleep Trophy. Therefore, it is vital for him to get an opportunity here.
4) Ishan Kishan
Ishan Kishan is also one of the likely wicket-keepers for each team in the upcoming Duleep Trophy 2024. The Jharkhand man is set to play domestic cricket. It makes sense to have him as one of the wicket-keepers. He actually had a decent start to his Test career. It is always good to have a left-handed batter in the middle order, especially if he is a wicket-keeper.
