The 27-year-old Ranjane, a right-handed batsman and right-arm medium pacer, has played 12 first-class matches and scored 513 runs while claiming five wickets. Left-arm pacer Wagh, who made his first-class debut in 2007, has featured in 64 matches notching up 1646 runs. The 32-year-old has taken 161 wickets with best bowling figures of 5/23.

Last season, BCCI had not conducted the Ranji Trophy due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
