With Devdutt Padikkal set for India's A series against Australia, here's a look at the full Indian squad and the schedule.
India A will face Australia A in a multi-format series from September 22 to October 11 in Puducherry. Two different captains, Devdutt Padikkal and Ruturaj Gaikwad, will lead the respective multi-day and one-day squads. Padikkal, the vice-captain of the Test team, will captain India A in the four-day matches, while Gaikwad will lead the one-day side.
Hardik Pandya is included in the one-day squad subject to fitness, providing him an opportunity to regain competitive cricket form after a lengthy injury absence. The series, which doubles as a trial run for Test hopefuls ahead of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, features five matches at various dates and venues in Puducherry.
