Manoj to lead strong Bengal squad
10th September 2016
Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) think-tank last night put seal on the 22-member senior Bengal squad to be led by veteran Manoj Tiwari for the current domestic season.
In a closed door meeting led by CAB President Sourav Ganguly, the meeting was attended by selectors Arup Bhattacharya and Madan Ghosh, former cricketers Ranadeb Bose, Joydeep Mukherjee, incumbent skipper Manoj Tiwari and Joint Secretary Abhishek Dalmiya. Chairman of selectors Deep Dasgupta, who is away as commentator, was unavailable, but Chief Coach Sairaj Bahutule was taken into the process over phone.
With Bengal’s domestic season beginning October 13, preparations are afoot to get the squad in shape. Batting consultant V V S Laxman will be with the side from September 17, along with bowling consultant T A Sekhar to help players hone their skills.
