Mumbai are third in Group A behind Baroda and Jammu & Kashmir, who happen to their opponents on Thursday. For the fixture to be played at BKC, Mumbai have included India captain Rohit Sharma, who will play under Ajinkya Rahane. Similarly, Yashasvi Jaiswal – who was India’s best batsman in Australia – will also play the game and is set to open. Apart from the two, Mumbai will also have Shreyas Iyer, Shivam Dube and Shardul Thakur for the fixture. The inclusion of big names means there will be a few compromises to make.

File image of Yashasvi Jaiswal.© AFP Young Indian batter Yashasvi Jaiswal on Monday reflected on his maiden tour of Australia during the recently concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy and said that he has learnt a lot. India began the series with a win in Perth but failed to sustain the momentum. This marked Australia’s first Border-Gavaskar Trophy triumph in a decade, their last win came in 2014-15. Kohli, one of India’s senior players, was among the biggest disappointments, managing just 190 runs at an average of 23.75 in eight innings, with Scott Boland dismissing him four times. Yashasvi played all five matches of the series and scored 391 runs at a strike rate of 53.42 and an average of 43.44. He slammed 44 fours and 4 sixes in the series. Taking to Instagram, Yashasvi said that “unfortunately” the result was not what Team India hoped but they will come back stronger. “Learnt a lot in Australia… Unfortunately the result wasn’t what we had hoped for but we’ll be back stronger. Your support means everything,” Yashasvi …

With most of talk happening about the run-out involving Indian opener Yashasavi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli during the last 45 minutes of the second day of the Boxing Day Test match in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at Melbourne, Australian off-spinner Nathan Lyon too had weighed down his thoughts on the run-out. Post Australia’s first inning’s total of 474, India seemed in control at 153 for 2 with Yashasavi Jaiswal batting on 82. With Jaiswal hitting a Scot Boland delivery towards mid-on, Kohli and Jaiswal had a mix up in the middle resulting in Jaiswal getting run out followed by India losing two more wickets before the end of the day’s play. Lyon took a dig at the run-out terming it as ‘one of the best barbecues’ he has seen. “It was probably one of the best barbecues I’ve seen, to be honest with you. It came out of the blue. They were doing it pretty easy out there … Pressure does funny things. Silly run-outs are coach killers, aren’t they? It was pretty special,” Lyon told …
