National Twenty20 cricket championship for Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy will begin today in four different cities – Nagpur, Kochi, Vadodra and Cuttack. Veterans Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh and Ashish Nehra would like to get some quality match time at the event before the T20 series in Australia. For India internationals like comeback men Yuvraj and Nehra, along with fringe players, it will be a testing ground where they can stake claim for a berth in the team for ICC World T20 in March.The BCCI has decided to hold Mushtaq Ali T20 keeping the World T20 in mind. Punjab skipper Harbhajan and Yuvraj will be fighting it out against Rajasthan at Kochi while Nehra, who made a comeback into the Indian team after four and half years, will be getting himself battle ready with Delhi taking on Railways.Another person who must be wanting to prove a point would be Suresh Raina, who got an ODI snub after a long time. Raina's Uttar Pradesh will take on Maharashtra at Cuttack.
