The Central Zone has announced significant changes to its lineup ahead of the Duleep Trophy final against South Zone. Key inclusions are Vidarbha's seamer Nachiket Bhute and Madhya Pradesh's left-arm spinner Kumar Kartikeya Singh as replacements.
Bhute fills the shoes of Yash Thakur, while Kartikeya replaces Harsh Dubey, both of whom have been called up to represent India A in upcoming matches against Australia A in Lucknow. Additional changes include Rajasthan's Ajay Singh Kukna and MP's Kuldeep Sen stepping in for Khaleel Ahmed and Manav Suthar.
The reshuffled squad aims to capitalize on its first-innings lead strategy that secured their spot in the final, slated to be played in Bengaluru from September 11-15, following a stalemate in the semifinals against West Zone.
