For the unversed, Arun Lal has spent many years commentating on cricket matches, thus, he had a brilliant response when asked about his honeymoon plans.
"Ranji Trophy is our honeymoon," he stated. As the head coach of Bengal cricket team, Arun Lal will be seen coaching his boys as they prepare for the Ranji Trophy quarter-finals versus Jharkhand at the MA Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru from 4 to 8 June.
Ranji Trophy 2021-22 will be held in two legs owing to the scheduling of IPL 2022, and hence, the pre-quarters were played before the IPL, and the rest will be scheduled after the end of the cash-rich league's 15th edition.

Arun Lal played 16 Tests and 13 ODIs for team India between 1982 and 1989. He was a prominent feature behind the mics in both domestic and international matches and will be seen heading the charge for Bengal.
