The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) has made its local T20 League compulsory for all Mumbai-based international Indian players. The board has already announced extra cash apart from their auction money. The list of players includes Shardul Thakur, Prithvi Shaw, Shivam Dube, Suryakumar Yadav, Ajinkya Rahane, and Shreyas Iyer. According to a report from the Indian Express, MCA has made the T20 Mumbai League compulsory for the Mumbai-based players who won't be occupied with their national duties. An MCA official told the Indian Express, "All Mumbai's Indian players have been informed that they have to play the T20 Mumbai League, which will begin after the IPL. It's mandatory, unless those, who have India commitment or injury issues, they can skip." The Indian team will be touring England for the five-match Test series, and the player who will cut the team will, as usual, be relieved from featuring in the league.
