With Test regulars Mohammed Shami and Wriddhiman Saha playing for Bengal, Delhi would have loved to get the services of its regular skipper Ishant who has taken 20 wickets in four Ranji games this season.
With Bhuvneshwar Kumar not playing the second Test vs Sri Lanka due to his marriage, Ishant has a fair chance of making it to the playing XI after doing his hard yards in the Ranji Trophy.
As per the policy of Indian team management for the past few years, players who are not part of the playing XI are sent back to play first-class cricket to keep them match ready.
With seven points including a bonus by virtue of innings victory, Delhi are now on top of Group A with 10 points from two games.
Ishant Sharma will be captaining Delhi for the first time and he wants to enjoy each and every moment of it.
Delhi made an inglorious exit from the group league stage of Ranji Trophy last season, their campaign was marred by a bitter exchange of words between captain Gambhir and coach KP Bhaskar.
Interestingly, it will also be the first time that Ishant will play a pink ball first-class game under lights.
