Sanju Samson to Captain Kerala in Hazare Trophy Cricket Tournament.

Sanju Samson is set to lead Kerala in the upcoming Vijay Hazare Trophy, with Rohan Kunnummal as his deputy. The captain’s potential inclusion in the Indian team for the T20I series against Australia adds anticipation to the tournament.

Notably, Shreyas Gopal is the only outstation professional in the 16-member squad. Kerala kicks off their campaign against Saurashtra at Alur near Bengaluru on November 23. Group A, comprising Mumbai, Odisha, Puducherry, Railways, Sikkim, and Tripura, promises stiff competition.

Reflecting on their recent setback in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy national T20 championship against Assam, Kerala is keen to make a strong comeback. The squad features players like Vishnu Vinod, Mohammed Azharuddeen, Sachin Baby, and Basil Thampi.

The full Kerala squad includes Sanju Samson (capt), Rohan Kunnummal (vice-capt), Vishnu Vinod, Shreyas Gopal, Mohammed Azharuddeen, Sachin Baby, Abdul Bazith, Sijomon Joseph, Vaisakh Chandran, Basil Thampi, Salman Nizar, Ajnas M, Akhil Scaria, Basil N P, Akhin Sathar, and Midhun S.
