Parthiv Patel, who has played 25 Tests, 38 ODIs and two T20Is for India, is currently staying back home waiting for the IPL to start. The wicket-keeper batsman from Gujarat is contracted to Royal Challengers Bangalore(RCB) in the IPL 2020. In the recently concluded Ranji Trophy, Parthiv guided Gujarat to the semifinals but unfortunately couldn’t get his hands on the trophy like he did in 2016-17 edition.

Dean Jones, on the other hand, recently returned from Pakistan where he was coaching Karachi Kings. The tournament had to be cancelled just before the knockout stages due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus.
