Mumbai Cricket Shocker: Key Stars Out for Crucial Match
12 Jan
Summary
- Top scorer Sarfaraz Khan ruled out with finger injury.
- Fast bowler Tushar Deshpande misses match due to family emergency.
- Mumbai faces Karnataka in Vijay Hazare Trophy quarterfinal.

Mumbai's aspirations for the Vijay Hazare Trophy have been dealt a severe blow ahead of their quarterfinal clash with Karnataka. Two pivotal players, batsman Sarfaraz Khan and fast bowler Tushar Deshpande, will not be participating in the critical match.
Sarfaraz Khan, Mumbai's leading run-scorer this season, sustained a finger injury during a net session after being struck by a delivery. He has been in remarkable form, notably achieving the fastest List A half-century by an Indian in just 15 balls.
Meanwhile, Tushar Deshpande had to leave the team due to a pressing family matter, with his wife admitted to the hospital for childbirth. Deshpande received approval from the Mumbai Cricket Association before his departure. Ishan Mulchandani has been named as Sarfaraz's replacement.
