Hyderabad: Mumbai will have a big boost to their squad for the remainder of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024 as two of their key players are set to join the squad. India’s T20 skipper Suryakumar Yadav and all-rounder Shivam Dube, who has recovered from a back injury will join the team in Hyderabad according to sources. The duo will turn out for the last two couple of fixtures for the team against Services and Andhra.
Suryakumar was not available for the initial part of the tournament due to personal reasons while Dube was recovering from his injury. With Dube returning to the fold, India will have an all-round option in the T20Is. Dube last featured for India A against India B in the Duleep Trophy in early September.
Dube, who was recently retained by the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) for a price of ₹12 Crores will have a chance to feature in the eight-match white-ball series against England from January 22.
Mumbai have played three matches so far in the tournament under the leadership of Shreyas Iyer winning two while losing one. The team is currently at fourth position in their group with eight points to their name.
Suryakumar led India to a 2-1 series win over South Africa recently. The Indian captain looked off-clour with the bat as he managed scores of 21, 4 and 1. But, his captaincy was highly appreciated for encouraging youngsters like Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson.
