Mumbai, Nov 5 (PTI) Middle-order India batter Shreyas Iyer returned to defending champions Mumbai’s 16-member side for the Ranji Trophy Elite Group A clash against Odisha starting here on Wednesday, but opener Prithvi Shaw was excluded.
Iyer had missed Mumbai’s previous away clash against Tripura — a contest which was drawn — due to personal reasons and is now available for selection for the upcoming clash to be played at the Sharad Pawar Cricket Academy in Bandra-Kurla Complex.
However, Shaw, who was dropped before the team’s trip to Agartala for their last game, did not find a place.
The right-handed opening batter, who was initially a part of the Mumbai team at the start of the season while also featuring in their title-winning Irani Cup campaign, was left out due to fitness and disciplinary issues.
