Mumbai vice-captain Ayush Mhatre suffers a Grade 4 tear in his right hamstring and is ruled out for around a month. The injury occurs while he is opening the batting for Mumbai against Chandigarh during a Ranji Trophy match on Sunday.
The outlets agree the setback happens at the start of the Ranji Trophy season and that Mhatre’s recovery will keep him sidelined for a significant period. While ESPN Cricinfo and NDTV describe the injury as a Grade 4 hamstring tear, the Times of India adds that the hamstring issue is a recurrence, positioning it as a major early-season concern for Mumbai’s squad. No source reports a longer-than-month timeframe or a specific return date.
