<p>Promising all-rounder Musheer Khan&rsquo;s consistent performances were rewarded with a maiden Mumbai Ranji Trophy call-up on Monday.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Musheer, 17, was picked in the 21-member Mumbai team, which will be led by Prithvi Shaw, for the Ranji knockout round. Mumbai will take on Uttarakhand in the quarter-final on June 6 at Bangalore. &nbsp;</p>
<p>Musheer led from the front, scoring 670 runs and claiming 32 wickets to finish runners-up in the U-19 Cooch Behar Trophy earlier this month. In the U-25 CK Nayudu Trophy triumph, Musheer played a vital role last month with 401 runs. &nbsp;</p>
<p>Mumbai&rsquo;s CK Nayudu Trophy-winning coach Rajesh Pawar was delighted with Musheer&rsquo;s promotion to Ranji Trophy. &ldquo;Musheer is ready for first-class cricket. He has performed well at every level and was consistent in &lsquo;A&rsquo; division local tournaments like Police Shield and Times Shield,&rdquo; Pawar told mid-day on Tuesday. &nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />&ldquo;He is a complete team man, who gives a 100 per cent effort and that is his biggest quality.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Musheer will join his elder brother Sarfaraz in the senior Mumbai squad.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Pawar highlighted Musheer&rsquo;s ability to adapt on his own. During an U-25 league game against Andhra last month, Musheer, who was dismissed on nine in the first innings, took a couple of steps ahead to counter the swing from the same bowler [Y Pramod] and scored 41. &ldquo;That was very impressive. It was his ability to think and adapt to the situation,&rdquo; said Pawar.</p><p>
