Parsee Gymkhana’s head coach Vinayak Mane has questioned the omission of his ward Pranay Kapadia, an opening batsman, who the former Mumbai and India ‘A’ felt deserved a place in the 30 U-19 probables picked recently for an off-season camp.

“If an U-19 boy scores a 28-ball 52 [in the Purshottam Shield]  and  has other scores of 70 and 80 odd as well as a 65 in difficult conditions during a ‘B’ Division Kanga League game [in 2023], he should be looked at,” Mane said of Kapadia’s exploits.
