Shreyas Iyer and Sarfaraz Khan flopped while Suryakumar Yadav did not bat for Mumbai owing to an injury concern as TNCA XI hammered Mumbai by 286 runs to reach semi-finals of the Buchi Babu Invitational Tournament, here on Friday. Chasing an improbable 510, Mumbai were shot out for a mere 223 on Day Four with Shams Mulani making a valiant 68. For TNCA XI, CV Achyuth and R Sai Kishore claimed three wickets each.
India T20I skipper Suryakumar did not bat as he reportedly suffered an injury to his hand. However, it has been learnt that the injury is not serious since he appeared to be doing fine following the conclusion of the contest and was perhaps taking precautionary rest. Resuming at the overnight score of 6-0, Musheer Khan (40) and Divyansh Saxena (26) put on 60 runs for the opening stand before being separated by pacer R Sonu Yadav, who got rid of the latter.

Mumbai captain Sarfaraz, who batted at No. 10 in the first essay for a mere six runs, fell for a four-ball duck in the second to Achyuth. Later, the pair of Mulani (68) and Mohit Avasthi (0 not out) added 46 for the ninth wicket.
