Aaradhya Shinde would’ve been undergoing mixed feelings after his team, IES Digambar Patkar Vidyalaya (Dadar) lost their Mumbai Schools Sports Association (MSSA) Harris Shield boys’ U-16 inter-school Elite Division match to IES VN Sule Guruji (Dadar) by an innings and 162 runs at Cross Maidan yesterday. That’s because the skipper’s individual performances have earned him a call-up for the Mumbai Cricket Association’s (MCA) boys U-14 selections trials to be held at Bandra Kurla Complex.
