India's T20 captain Suryakumar Yadav has been left out of Mumbai's squad for the upcoming Ranji Trophy season, but will lead the side in the Vijay Hazare Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, according to a report from The Cricket News on November 5, 2026.

The omission from the red-ball competition comes as a surprise given Yadav's leadership role in white-ball cricket. Mumbai selectors have opted to entrust him with the captaincy for the 50-over Vijay Hazare Trophy and the T20 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, highlighting his importance in the shorter formats.
