Been there, done that at Iowa State. Like Nelson, Blythe said he won’t spend much time thinking about the records until after the season.

It is a misfortune though, that they face the tough task of starting the Ranji Trophy with 10 uncapped players in their squad. Sairaj Bahutule, their captain last season, had to undergo a surgery on his shoulder during the off-season, and Maharashtra have chosen to go slow on him.
