Jharkhand are a Plate league team, who have qualified for the semi-finals. Their wicketkeeper, MS Dhoni, is a hard-hitting batsman who has played for India 'A' and scored lots of quick runs for them. He made his debut in the series in Bangladesh. He throws his bat at just about everything and throws caution to the wind, which is why he's likely to get out for not too many on pitches that offer little bounce.chris.hinton said:who are Jharkhand? are they a new team?
Maybe new, since the Jharkhand- the state- was created only in the year 2000, so they're a relatively new team. It used to be a part of Bihar, but now, the state has its own team. Tough call, since on CricInfo, both Bihar and Jharkhand are listed as the same team!chris.hinton said:Are they a New Team? or a New name for an Old Team ?
thanks Anjun
Jharkhand was a new state created in India. They now have a First Class team too.chris.hinton said:who are Jharkhand? are they a new team?
CricInfo often confuse Bihar with Jharkhand. Look at the Plate league scorecards, you'll often see Bihar when Jharkhand is the team in question.Jharkhand was a new state created in India. They now have a First Class team too.
Mumbai have a more steady batting sid,e and have been in better form than Punjab. However, Yuvraj Singh's return to the side will add some quality and firepower to challenge the Mumbai bowlers. They can target the opening bowlers, particularly Agarkar's partner. That said, the longer Agarkar goes without wickets, the worse he bowls, and that should make their plans. Gagandeep Singh will face a stern test when bowling to Vinayak Mane and Wasim Jaffer, but the young Mumbai opener has been off-colour.Mumbai V Punjab
Balance against quality. Hyderabad have VVS Laxman, while Railways have as many as 7 batsmen. Both bowling sides are unfancied, but in good form. Rayudu once took their attack apart, but is not in the same form now.Railways v Hyderabad
