The suspense surrounding Virat Kohli's availability for Delhi’s upcoming Ranji Trophy match against Saurashtra, scheduled to begin on January 23, continues to build. However, a Times of India report quoting reliable sources claimed that Kohli is dealing with a neck sprain and has even taken an injection to aid his recovery.

As BCCI has mandated for the senior India players to participate in India's red-ball domestic tournament, here's a list of players who might play in the upcoming Ranji matches.

Rishabh Pant last played in the Ranji Trophy during the 2017-2018 season, and Virat Kohli hasn't taken part in the domestic tournament since 2012.
