Maharashtra, on the other hand, had a season to forget last year as they failed to qualify for the quarter-finals. They managed to win only a single game out of five and finished in the second-last position in Group C.
Maharashtra will be hoping for a much-improved performance this time around as they are placed in Group A alongside Goa, Odisha, Punjab, Puducherry and the defending champions Tamil Nadu. Dynamic opener Ruturaj Gaikwad has been named as their skipper this season. The young batter will look forward to leading the side by example.
