Mumbai’s stand-in skipper Siddhesh Lad has questioned the BCCI for having a 9am start to their Vijay Hazare Trophy (VHT) quarter-final match against hosts Karnataka in Bengaluru on Monday, which the visiting team ended up losing via VJD method due to rain.

Put into bat, Mumbai’s batters struggled in the morning conditions and were 60-4 at one stage before Shams Mulani’s 86 helped them post 254-8 in 50 overs.
