Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy-winning team skipper and wicketkeeper-batsman Aditya Tare was dropped from the Vijay Hazare Trophy team that was announced by the Mumbai Cricket Association on their website on Thursday.

Young bowling all-rounder Shams Mulani has been handed the captaincy in the absence of seniors like Ajinkya Rahane, Shreyas Iyer, Suryakumar Yadav and Prithvi Shaw, who are all away on national duty.
