Veteran Indian wicketkeeper-batter Wriddhiman Saha is all set to make a return to Bengal after playing for 2 seasons with Tripura. Saha also expressed plans to play in all 3 formats for the state in the upcoming domestic season. He had parted ways with Bengal following a clash with Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) secretary Debabrata Das, who alleged Saha was making excuses to avoid playing for Bengal.
“I am happy and excited to be back in Bengal. I am looking forward to playing and giving my best for the state. As of now, my plan is to play in all three formats for Bengal, and it will depend on how things go ahead in the season,” Wriddhiman said during a press meet on Monday.
“Bengal now has a blend of both youth and experience. I hope this combination will help in building a strong team. As a team, we are not looking too far ahead, rather focusing on our job at hand and preparing well for the season,” Saha added.
The right-handed batter was accompanied by CAB President Snehasish Ganguly and CAB Hon. Secretary Naresh Ojha.
“It is a matter of great joy to welcome Wriddhi back in Bengal. He has served us a lot in the past. I hope his return will strengthen the team, and Bengal will aim for a better performance in the upcoming season. I wish Wriddi the very best for the forthcoming season,” Snehasish Ganguly said.
