India cricket captain Rohit Sharma is generating excitement as he prepares to appear in his first Ranji Trophy match for Mumbai in ten years. The much-anticipated match against the J&K team will take place on Thursday at the Sharad Pawar Cricket Academy in BKC.

In response to Sharma's participation, additional security measures are being implemented, and the seating capacity is being expanded to accommodate up to 500 spectators at the Mumbai Cricket Association's BKC facility. This adjustment is in place as Mumbai continues to play its league matches in the Ranji Trophy.

Mumbai, currently third in the Elite Group A standings behind leaders Baroda and second-placed J&K, must perform at their best to progress further in the competition. The inclusion of fellow Test opener Yashasvi Jaiswal adds to the anticipation surrounding Sharma's return.
