Mumbai head coach Omkar Salvi
In search of their long awaited 42nd Ranji Trophy title, Mumbai cricketers began their off-season camp at the Mumbai Cricket Association's Bandra-Kurla complex academy on Wednesday.
Mumbai chief selector - former India pacer Raju Kulkarni - and head coach Omkar Salvi addressed the cricketers on a few vital aspects during their first introductory session.
Both underlined the fact that Mumbai had won the last Ranji Trophy way back in 2015-16 and now it's time to bring the glory days back.

"Emphasis will be given on the player's performance, discipline, work ethics and right attitude. How much you [player] will push extra yard for the benefit of the team will matter most," is the message cricketers got from both Kulkarni and Salvi, a source told mid-day.
Physical fitness will be another key area which Mumbai cricketers need to give utmost importance this season as they need to justify certain benchmarks during the off-season camp.
It is learnt that batsman Agni Chopra has been added to the list of 35 players who were selected on June 2 for the off season camp.
