Trophy champions Mumbai on Saturday included opener Arman Jaffer in their squad to play against Tamil Nadu in the opening game at Lahli from October 6 to 9.

This is the first time the 19-year-old youngster, nephew of former India opener Wasim, has been included in the Mumbai Ranji squad.

The team will be led by wicketkeeper Aditya Tare who led Mumbai to their 41st title last season.

The right-handed batsman scored 69 in New Zealand’s warm-up match against Mumbai at the Feroz Shah Kotla last month.
