(Source: Express file photo)Mumbai’s middle-order batsman Suryakumar Yadav would have never thought that a cheeky re-tweet could keep his selection in the Mumbai team for Vijay Hazare Trophy hanging in balance. On Monday, Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) senior selection committee picked their 14 member-squad for the inter-state one day limited over league to be played in Chennai from February 25. Indian Express understands that MCA Joint secretary Dr Unmesh Khanvilkar has sent a notice after the selection committee meeting where MCA asked Yadav to submit a written explanation in the next 24 hours. The MCA selection committee had not picked Yadav for zonal T20 league games in January 25 after Yadav had retweeted a tweet from well-known Mumbai columnist, who wrote, “You are dropped? Mumbai team: Aditya Tare (Captain), Abhishek Nayar, Shreyas Iyer, Siddhesh Lad, Akhil Herwadkar, Prithvi Shaw, Shivam Dube, Sufiyan Shaikh, Dhawal Kulkarni, Shardul Thakur, Shivam Malhotra, Pravin Tambe, Aditya Dhumal, Vijay Gohil.
