Prithvi Shaw, Shardul Thakur Named In Mumbai Squad For Irani Cup Vs ROI
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) announced its squad for the Irani Cup 2024, with veteran Ajinkya Rahane set to lead the team against the Rest of India, scheduled to be played from October 1 to 5 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow.
Ajinkya Rahane, who played a pivotal role in Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy triumph, returns to captain the side after skipping the Duleep Trophy 2024. Joining him is opener Prithvi Shaw, who is set to make an impact after a successful stint in the County Championship.
The match will be crucial for both Shaw and Shreyas Iyer, as they aim to revive their international careers with strong domestic performances. Shaw, eager to showcase his potential after impressing in county cricket, and Iyer, under scrutiny following recent struggles in red-ball cricket, are eyeing this game as a stepping stone back to the Indian national team.
