Punjab and India fast bowler Gurnoor Brar has been added to North Zone's squad for their Duleep Trophy semi-final against South Zone. The match begins on August 30 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 feature in either match. His inclusion gives North Zone an additional pace option for the semi-final.
Auqib Nabi is exploring a county stint subject to his visa paperwork coming through. The semi-final represents Brar's first opportunity to play in the Duleep Trophy this season.

Brar's selection for the Duleep semi-final despite missing out on Test action against Sri Lanka shows selectors are keeping him in the domestic spotlight while he waits for his first senior international opportunity.
