Jaiswal is expected to be named in Mumbai’s squad for the upcoming Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26 season. The batter is expected to play at least two rounds of the tournament and open alongside his India teammate Rohit Sharma, following which the duo will engage themselves in the series against New Zealand for the three One-Day Internationals at home.
Jaiswal set to play for Mumbai in Vijay Hazare Trophy
Mumbai, led by Shardul Thakur, will be opening their Vijay Hazare campaign in the Elite Group C fixture against Sikkim on December 24 in Jaipur. They will then face Chhattisgarh at the same venue a couple of days later. India, on the other hand, will be starting the ODI series against the BlackCaps on January 11, 2026 with matches to played in Vadodara, Rajkot, and Indore.
Notably, Jaiswal is currently not in the scheme of things for the Men in Blue’s T20I squad, since the opening spots have been given to Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill, with Sanju Samson being their backup. India will be naming their squad for the 2026 T20 World Cup on Saturday, December 20, but chances of Jaiswal being named in the squad remain bleak.
