Jalaj Saxena returns to Kerala
All-rounder cricketer Jalaj Saxena has officially transferred back to the Kerala team for the 2026-27 domestic season. The move follows BCCI approval and his retention by the Alleppey Ripples for the Kerala Cricket League.
Why it matters
Saxena's return is viewed as a significant strategic boost for Kerala's bowling lineup given his extensive experience and record-breaking domestic performance.
All-rounder Jalaj Saxena will represent Kerala in the 2026-27 domestic season. Jalaj, who played for Maharashtra in the 2025-26 season, didn’t take part in the Maharashtra Premier League (MPL) in June. He applied for an NOC and the BCCI approved his transfer, making him eligible to play for Kerala.
