Shrikant Kalyani

Maharashtra will be bolstered by the return of their regular skipper Kedar Jadhav when they face Vidarbha in a Ranji Trophy fixture beginning at Eden Gardens on Sunday.

Pune and Maharashtra stalwart, the late Kamal Bhandarkar, was widely regarded as the best coach in India from 1950 until his death in 1986. Chandu Borde, Sunil Gavaskar, Chetan Chauhan, Yajurvindra Singh, Hemant Kanitkar, Milind Gunjal, Shrikant Kalyani, Shubhangi Kulkarni are just some of the names that benefited from his tutelage.

The general feeling in the Maharashtra camp after the first day's play was that they had allowed Odisha to get off the hooks and reach 311 on a wicket which was offering ample assistance to the seamers.
