Nissanka's return headlines SL's Test squad against Pakistan
Pasindu Sooriyabandara retains his place ahead of Lahiru Udara while keeper Anjala Bandara could make his debut
Rishabh Pant's participation in India's upcoming Test series in New Zealand remains uncertain due to a recent injury. The BCCI has not officially cleared him to play, and the squad is yet to be finalized. Pant captained Rest of India in the Irani Cup but had to miss the final day due to a fever. Reports suggest he could be back in training within 10 to 15 days, but a clear return date has not been provided.
If he is fit, he could play in the third India A match, starting on November 7, and potentially even the first Test against New Zealand on November 19. The selectors will have to decide on his fitness before the Test squad is announced, which is expected later this month.
