Harshit Rana joins the Test team for the first time, celebrates with “four” and can make his debut in Australia

New Delhi. Harshit Rana is an upcoming fast bowler. This 22-year-old right-arm pacer got a place in the Indian Test team a day ago. Harshit celebrated it in grand style. He took four wickets in the Ranji Trophy match against Assam at his home stadium. This Delhi fast bowler has got a place in the Test team for the first time. Harshit can debut on Australian tour. Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir is impressed with the bowling of Harshit, who plays for Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL. Gambhir has high expectations from this player.

Amidst Harshit’s brilliant bowling and wicketkeeper-batsman Sumit Ghadigaonkar’s unbeaten 120 runs, Assam scored 264 runs for six wickets at stumps on the first day of the Group D Ranji Trophy match. Left-handed batsman Ghadigaonkar and experienced Sib Shankar Roy (59 runs) formed a 164-run partnership for the fifth wicket. But after that, Rana (four wickets for 62 runs in 15 overs) ended this partnership. But Delhi bowled at a very slow pace where only 76 overs could be bowled on the day.

Defeat culprits: 3 reasons…due to which Team India lost all four at home, otherwise we would have won the Test series.

Rana impressed with his bowling
Only Rana and debutant Mani Grewal (1 wicket for 42 runs) impressed in their bowling. While the other two fast bowlers Siddhant Sharma and Himanshu Chauhan could not trouble the other two in-form Assam batsmen. For Assam, Rishav Das (33 runs) and Danish Das (18 runs) added 51 runs for the third wicket. If Delhi wants to get a result in this game, they will have to act quickly on the second day.
