MUMBAI: In a big boost to Mumbai, India batsman Shreyas Iyer has joined the team in Rajkot for the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy, and will be available for their next match against Rajasthan on Tuesday.
Iyer, who is amongst India's standbys for the T20 World Cup, has joined Mumbai as the squad's 16th member. Since the BCCI's rules stipulate that only 15 can be allowed in the dugout, Suryansh Shedge (Shardul Thakur's replacement) will have to sit out of that area.
