Mumbai’s formidable batting lineup is set to be bolstered by the inclusion of Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal for their third-round Ranji Trophy encounter against Rajasthan. The match kicks off on November 1st in Jaipur. Jaiswal, a consistent performer for India in Test matches, has made himself available for this key Elite Group D fixture. This decision reflects the BCCI’s strong stance on ensuring its contracted players engage in domestic cricket when not on international duty. Following his participation in the recent ODI series against Australia, Jaiswal is not selected for the subsequent T20Is. His impressive Test career includes a significant 175 against the West Indies. Sources indicate Jaiswal has informed Mumbai’s chief selector of his availability. This will be Jaiswal’s first Ranji Trophy outing for Mumbai after reaffirming his commitment to the team. His previous domestic appearance was for West Zone in the Duleep Trophy in August. Playing in this premier domestic competition provides Jaiswal crucial game time before India faces South Africa in a comprehensive home series featuring Tests, T20Is, and ODIs.
