The Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025/26 finally gets its biggest boost in Mumbai’s camp as Shreyas Iyer makes his return to competitive cricket after more than two months on the sidelines. The India ODI vice-captain is set to lead Mumbai in their Round 6 clash against Himachal Pradesh on Monday.
It is a crucial step in his comeback journey just days before the New Zealand ODI series begins on January 11. This match plays an important role in granting Iyer full fitness clearance. He already passed the first round RTP match simulation. The 31-year-old has already cleared four high-intensity skill sessions at the BCCI’s Centre of Excellence and successfully completed his first Return to Play match simulation. The match against Himachal Pradesh now serves as his second RTP simulation, which will determine whether he receives full clearance for the upcoming New Zealand series.
With regular skipper Shardul Thakur ruled out due to a calf injury, Mumbai have handed leadership back to Iyer.
