India have adopted a split-squad approach for the ongoing tour, with the senior team scheduled to play five ODIs before the two-match Test series. Tilak Varma is also part of the ODI squad for the final two matches, while several players are being managed with the World Test Championship (WTC) fixtures in mind.
Tilak Varma could therefore join the India A squad in time for the four-day fixture at Bert Sutcliffe Oval. He is scheduled to feature in the final two ODIs on November 13 and 15 at Bay Oval in Tauranga. Shreyas Iyer will take over the captaincy from Shubman Gill for those matches.
