Finally, the Irani Cup is happening as the game was slated to be played in March 2020 after Saurashtra’s Ranji Trophy win. However, it could not be played courtesy of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Saurashtra won their first-ever Ranji title after defeating Bengal in the final courtesy of the first-innings lead. The veteran pacer Jaydev Unadkat will lead Saurashtra in the Irani Cup, while Hanuma Vihari will lead the star-studded Rest of India squad.
