DTVHINDIShreyas Iyer to captain Mumbai in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT): Reports
Tournament is starting from 23rd November Shreyas Iyer (Pic Source-X) Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has reportedly appointed Shreyas Iyer as the captain for the upcoming Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy (SMAT), while Prithvi Shaw has also got a place in the squad. The senior selection committee, which will start from November 23, took this decision on Sunday. So, if Indian Express reports regarding this decision are to be believed, then the appointment of giving the responsibility of captaincy to Iyer has been done because of his impressive track record in the shortest format. It is noteworthy that in IPL 2024, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) won the title for the third time under the captaincy of Iyer. If this happens, then Mumbai Ranji team captain Ajinkya Rahane can be seen playing under the captaincy of Iyer. On the other hand, opener Prithvi Shaw has also returned in the tournament starting from November 23, who was not included in Mumbai’s Ranji team due to fitness reasons. So due to injuries in this team, some star players have not got a place. This season, Shivam Dubey, Musheer Khan and fast bowler Tushar Deshpande will not be able to play in SMAT from Mumbai due to injury. But despite all this, there is a lot of depth in batting and bowling in the Mumbai team selected for the tournament. The team has experienced players like Shams Mulani and Shardul Thakur, who provide balance to the team in both areas.

It is noteworthy that Deshpande had a successful ankle operation on September 13 in London. After this operation, he is recovering and due to this has not been able to participate in any kind of competitive cricket. Apart from this, he has also been ruled out of the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 tournament starting from September 23. However, he is expected to make a comeback in the second leg of Ranji Trophy match against Jammu and Kashmir on January 23. The 29-year-old player is currently completing the rehab process at BCCI’s Center of Excellence in Bengaluru. Also, being out of Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament can prove to be a big blow for Deshpande. Because the player has been released by Chennai Super Kings (CSK) before the IPL 2025 auction. However, CSK can still re-add him to their team using the Right to Match Card (RTM). But if he had played in the Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament, his performance might have caught the attention of some other teams. It is noteworthy that during IPL 2024, Deshpande was one of the important fast bowlers of the CSK camp. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad handed the ball to Deshpande several times in the last overs and he remained true to his captain’s decision. In the last season of IPL, Tushar took 17 wickets in 13 matches played for five-time champion CSK, while Tushar played an important role in making Chennai the champion in the year 2023. This season, Tushar had taken 23 wickets in 16 matches played.
