With Thangarasu Natarajan already in the main squad, India's pure net bowling options have been reduced to only one with Uttar Pradesh speedster Kartik Tyagi helping out the batsmen.
BCCI has sent Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Kartik Tyagi, Ishan Porel and T. Natarajan to Australia as net bowlers. Nagarkoti, however, had to pull out due to the workload management policy.
KXIP will be aiming for a turnaround when they take on KKR in IPL 2020 later today.
Following the magnificent run, Porel, in an exclusive chat with India TV Sports Digital, talked about no-cricket amid coronavirus pandemic, his Ranji season, the hope of an India call-up and taking up the challenge of bowling to Indian skipper Virat Kohli.
The 21-year-old Porel was at his fiery best on Monday as he caught India batsman KL Rahul plumb with a sharp inswinger to leave Karnataka reeling at 98 for three in the Ranji Trophy semifinal.
After Majumdar's 149 not out propelled Bengal to 312 after being down at 67 for 6 at one stage, the 21-year-old Porel snared 5 for 39 as the three-pronged Bengal pace attack dismissed the batting-heavy Karnataka for a paltry 122 in 36.2 overs, their lowest total this season.
Ishan Porel, who was doing India A duty during their tour of New Zealand, was on Sunday named in the 16-member squad.
