India Test captain Shubman Gill is set to lead the North Zone in Duleep Trophy 2025. Gill, who had a sensational Test series against England, is set to captain the side which will have several other international stars, including Arshdeep Singh and Harshit Rana.
Shubman’s close friend Abhishek Sharma has not been included in the side. However, the India T20I opener is expected to participate in the 2025 Asia Cup, set to be hosted in the United Arab Emirates from September 9. The Duleep Trophy is set to start on August 28.
The tournament returns to its original format where six teams from as many zones – Central, East, West, North, South, and North East – are taking part in the tournament. This, in turn, provides more opportunities for the players from their respective zones. Hence, the BCCI has decided to bring back the zonal format to give fair opportunities to all the players.
