Chennai Super Kings' new batting sensation Ayush Mhatre has been named the skipper of the Mumbai first-class team that would compete in the Buchi Babu tournament in Tamil Nadu.
Mhatre, who made his Ranji Trophy debut last season for Mumbai, has already had some captaincy experience under his belt after he captained India Under-19 men on a tour to England recently, which also included Vaibhav Suryavanshi.
