All eyes will be on Wasim Jaffer as Ranji Trophy champions (also defending champs) Vidarbha take on Rest of India (ROI) in the five-day Irani Cup match at Nagpur today.

The veteran opener has played 12 Irani Cup matches from 1997-98, but despite being the top run-getter in this competition (1294 runs at 64.70), Jaffer has experienced victory only four times - once each for Mumbai and Vidarbha and twice while representing Rest of India.
