Former India opener and Bengal’s batting consultant W.V. Raman on Tuesday said that the players needed to retain the intensity in the longer domestic season after the pandemic.
According to Raman, Bengal has some good talent and should do well in the upcoming season. “There is a fair bit of talent, and it can be useful for the Bengal side. I am sure the boys will do well. What will be the key is fitness and the players need to retain the intensity because it will be a long season,” said Raman at a press conference here.
About Bengal’s inability to put up big totals consistently in the previous edition of the Ranji Trophy, Raman said it might be due to factors like the batters not getting enough preparation time and lesser number of matches in the Covid-hit season.
