The golden jubilee of Mumbai’s memorable 1970-71 Ranji Trophy triumph was celebrated on Friday evening at the Mumbai Cricket Association’s Bandra-Kurla Complex club.

A good number of players of that Sudhir Naik-led team, which beat Maharashtra in the final by 48 runs at the Brabourne Stadium in April 1971, gathered for a function called Magnificent 1971 Men through an initiative by former Mumbai pacer Vighnesh Shahane, the CEO and MD of Ageas Federal Life Insurance.
