Agarkar named Mumbai Ranji captain

Mumbai, Oct 11: Ajit Agarkar has been appointed captain of Mumbai Team for the first four league matches of the Ranji Trophy for the 2012-13 season beginning November 2. He will be replacing veteran cricketer Wasim Jaffer at the helm. Jaffer stepped down from captaincy in February 2012.

The pacer also led Mumbai in the Vijay Hazare Trophy earlier this year and has been a stand-in captain on a few occasions.

Agarkar claimed the fastest 50 ODI wickets after being included in the India squad in 1998 and also has a Test century under his belt. He was last seen in India colours in 2007.
