Jaffer, Parkar amongst six Mumbai players in India U-23 camp

Jaffer, Parkar, Raghuvanshi, and Jha played for the Mumbai Under-25 side, while Ayaz Khan, who was a part of the Mumbai Under-25 side too but couldn’t get a game, and Himanshu Veer Singh (off-spinner) featured for the Mumbai Under-19 team this season.
