Mustafi belonged to a generation of Indian cricketers who played in the decades following independence, when domestic cricket in India was organised primarily around zonal and state-based teams competing in the Ranji Trophy, the country's premier first-class competition administered by the BCCI.
Mustafi's cricketing career falls within the broader history of Indian first-class cricket in the post-independence era. Like many of his contemporaries, he contributed at the domestic level rather than at international level, with such cricketers forming the backbone of Indian state and zonal teams during the 1950s and 1960s.
Players such as Mustafi are recorded in cricketing databases and archives as part of the documented history of Indian first-class cricket. Their participation helped sustain the domestic structure that nurtured generations of Indian cricketers.
