Sentinel Digital Desk

Kolkata: Bengal on Friday re-appointed senior batsman Manoj Tiwary as captain of the side in the absence of Abhimanyu Easwaran for their Ranji Trophy match against Delhi starting from Monday.

Abhimanyu, who was appointed skipper in place of Tiwary at the beginning of the season, is travelling to New Zealand for India A commitments.

In Bengal's last game against Hyderabad, Tiwary became only the second batsman from the state to score a triple hundred as his unbeaten 303 helped the team to an innings and 303 run-win at Kalyani. IANS
