Other notable inclusions i⛦n the squad are Rahul Chahar, Khaleel Ahmed, Aniket Choudhary and Ashok Menaria.

After a disastrous 2018 season,ဣ which saw them finish ninth in Group C with ꦺjust two wins to their name, Rajasthan will be looking to turn their fortunes around and so they have identified teenage sensation Mahipal Lomror as the man to lead them to glory. Lomror, despite being 19, has three years of experience under his belt and will also have the guidance of Indian pacer Deepak Chahar, who will be his deputy for the forthcoming season of the Vijay Hazare Trophy.

"It is a good mix as we have both the senior players and even those who are representing Team India. I am happy that those youngsters who are performing well have also been included in the side," Lomror w🐼as quoted as saying by Times of India.

With Rajasthan set to play their group matches in Jaipur, Lomror hopes that his team can take advantage of conditions which they are very much ꦐaccustomed to.

"Definitely it is a good opportunity for us given that we know the conditions well. Hopefully we will come up with a very good p꧃erformance unlike last year," he said.

Other iꦍnclusions are Indian internationals Rahul Chahar and Khaleel Ahmed, while Tanveer-Ul-Haq, Aniket Choudhary and Ashok Menaria have also been picked in the squad.
