MUMBAI: In a big boost to Mumbai, dashing batsman Suryakumar Yadav will be available to them for their second Ranji Trophy match against Hyderabad at the Mumbai Cricket Association's ground in BKC from December 20.
On Saturday, the Mumbai senior selectors, led by former India pacer Salil Ankola, picked Yadav in place of young allrounder Suryansh Shedge, who received his maiden Ranji call-up in the last match, while the rest of the squad remains the same.Yadav missed the first Ranji game against Andhra, which Mumbai won by wickets at Vizianagaram, as he had taken a break after the white-ball tour of New Zealand.
