It is now confirmed that Mumbai-based India Test opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has cancelled his trip to Goa. Just a month ago, Jaiswal, 23, had requested a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA), citing his intentions to play for Goa in the upcoming domestic season. However, on Email request Thursday, he made a U-turn, sending another email to the MCA expressing his desire to continue playing for the 42-time Ranji Trophy champions.
“It’s now up to Mumbai’s Selection Committee and Cricket Improvement Committee [CIC] to decide on Jaiswal’s Mumbai future,” MCA secretary Abhay Hadap told mid-day on Friday. “He [Jaiswal] sent us an email on Thursday evening stating that he had curtailed his plans to shift his family to Goa and said, ‘Now, I intend to play for Mumbai’. He also mentioned in his email that he is yet to hand over the NOC issued by the MCA to the Goa Cricket Association and the BCCI,” said Hadap, adding that he would be happy to see the left-handed opener continue playing for Mumbai.
