"Jaydev Shah named captain of the 15-member squad, which will play its first match against Maharashtra on March 31," Himanshu Shah, Saurashtra Cricket Association (SCA) media manager, said in a release.
Pujara did not play in West Zone one-day tournament held here from February 27 to March 5 as he was in national squad for Asia Cup.
In his absence, Saurashtra could register only one victory which was against Gujarat.
Pujara's inclusion will give a boost to Saurashtra's chances.
Saurashtra has made two changes by including Cheteshwar Pujara and Dinesh Nakrani and dropped Nayan Doshi and Rahul Dave from the team that had played in West Zone one-day tournament.
The Team: Jaydev Shah (Capt), Sheldon Jackson, Cheteshwar Pujara, Sagar Jogiyani, Arpit Vasavada, kuldeep Rawal, Chirag Jani, Dharmendra Jadeja, Kamlesh Makwana, Vishal Joshi, Jaydev Unadkat, Abhishek Bhat, Prithvipal Solanki, Bhushan Chauhan and Dinesh Nakrani.
