  "summary": "The Indian Test squad for the upcoming series against Sri Lanka has seen a change as Jasprit Bumrah was ruled out due to a knee injury sustained during the ODI series against England. In his place, Auqib Nabi, a Jammu and Kashmir seamer, has been called up to make his maiden appearance in the senior national team. Nabi, who has claimed 104 wickets across the last two Ranji Trophy seasons, including 60 in the 2025-26 campaign, will be hoping to make an impact in the first Test, which will be played in Galle from August 15 to 19.",
