Wasim Jaffer, who will lead Mumbai today, also hinted that Tambe could make the cut in the playing XI. “We might look to play him in this match. He is experienced and a leg-spinner also brings a lot of variety into your attack. He can also bat a bit, so that will be a cushion. This is a relatively young side. But still we will make a final decision (about the playing XI) in the morning,” said Jaffer.
