Η Μαχαράστρα αποκλείστηκε από τους προκαταρκτικούς προημιτελικούς του Vijay Hazare Trophy την περασμένη σεζόν και έφτασε στον τελικό του τουρνουά τη σεζόν 2022-23.
Ruturaj Gaikwad will lead Maharashtra in the upcoming Vijay Hazare Trophy (VHT) 2024-25. The opener who was announced as their Ranji Trophy captain earlier in the year and led them in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT) has rightly been named their skipper for the domestic 50-over tournament.
CSK stars in Maharashtra’s squad for VHT
Apart from Gaikwad, who is Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain, there are just three more Indian Premier League (IPL) players in Maharashtra’s VHT squad. Two of these also play for CSK, Rahul Tripathi and Mukesh Choudhary. The remaining player, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, was picked up by the Lucknow Super Giants at the IPL 2025 auction but was part of CSK last year.
SMAT 2024-25 didn’t go well for Gaikwad or Maharashtra. The opener averaged a little over 30, which was primarily fueled by his 97-run knock against Services. Prior to that, he’d scored under 10 in three of his four previous innings. With their best star not performing, Maharashtra was knocked out in the group stage itself after suffering consecutive defeats to Mumbai, Andhra Pradesh, and Goa.
