Thakur, Jaiswal back in Mumbai squad for Ranji Trophy quarters

Shardul Thakur and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been named in Mumbai's 16-member squad for their Ranji Trophy quarterfinal against Karnataka, beginning February 6.

Both players missed Mumbai's last few matches. Thakur was sidelined due to injury, while the specific reason for Jaiswal's absence was not disclosed, even to the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA).

The MCA was reportedly displeased that Jaiswal did not play despite having no international commitments. Mumbai are 42-time Ranji Trophy champions.

Mumbai Squad:
Shardul Thakur (captain), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Musheer Khan, Akhil Herwadkar, Siddesh Lad, Sarfaraz Khan, Aakash Anand (wicket-keeper), Hardik Tamore (wicket-keeper), Sairaj Patil, Shams Mulani, Tanush Kotian, Tushar Deshpande, Mohit Awasth, Omkar Tarmale, Divyesh Saxena, Suryansh Shedge.
