B Sai Sudharsan Returns to Surrey

Indian and Tamil Nadu batter B Sai Sudharsan has rejoined Surrey for their County Championship games against Lancashire and Nottinghamshire.

Sudharsan previously represented Surrey in their June County Championship match against Essex at the Kia Oval, before making his T20I debut for India in Harare the following month.

These two County Championship matches will provide valuable preparation for Sudharsan ahead of the Duleep Trophy, which begins on September 5 in Bengaluru and Anantapur. He is part of Team C, led by Ruturaj Gaikwad. Sudharsan's county stint will conclude on September 1 after Surrey's away game at Trent Bridge.

Sudharsan is not currently playing in the ongoing Buchi Babu tournament in Coimbatore and Salem, where two Tamil Nadu teams are competing.

He also featured for Surrey twice in September 2023, helping them secure the County Championship Division One title during his maiden stint with the team. Sudharsan further showcased his talent in IPL 2024, becoming the highest run-scorer for Gujarat Titans with 527 runs in 12 innings, averaging 47.90 with a strike rate of 141.28.

Surrey, currently leading the Division One table, is aiming to clinch their third consecutive County Championship title.
