Gurnoor Brar added to North Zone squad for Duleep Trophy semifinal
Gurnoor Brar joins North Zone after missing Test opportunities against Sri Lanka.
Punjab and India fast bowler Gurnoor Brar has been added to the North Zone squad for the Duleep Trophy semifinal against South Zone. The match begins on Sunday at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru.
Brar was part of the Indian squad for the two-Test series against Sri Lanka but did not get a game. North Zone face a South Zone side led by Tilak Varma in the semifinal encounter.
Auqib Nabi is exploring a county stint subject to his visa paperwork coming through. The addition of Brar strengthens North Zone's pace attack for the crucial knockout match.

Brar's inclusion after missing Test opportunities shows how domestic cricket continues to serve as the primary pathway for players seeking consistent game time and selection consideration.
