Orissa is in the Elite league. Players for the duleep trophy are selected from Elite league only. Please note, Orissa was the best team from East zone this year.all this has been achieved without very good infrastructure. orissa has abundant natural resources.with rapid development in progress in orissa,it is only a matter of time before orissa takes over,not just in cricket but in different spheres.other small states like jharkhand will also come to the party in a big way.
