For the upcoming Ranji Trophy match scheduled to be played in Agartala from October 26 to 29, top order batter Prithvi Shaw has been dropped from the Mumbai squad. One of the reasons for not including Shaw in the match is his fitness.
It is reliably learnt that the 24-year-old does not regularly attend the team's training sessions and has also appeared a "little overweight", PTI reported. "You have to look at his fitness and his running when he is on the field. The MCA has a rich history and there cannot be exceptions for a certain player," an official from Mumbai Cricket Association told PTI.
