The Senior Men’s Selection Committee, led by Ajit Agarkar, has revealed the India A squad for the upcoming three-match one-day series against Australia A. India middle-order batter Shreyas Iyer has been appointed as captain for the series, which is set to begin on Tuesday, September 30, in Kanpur.
Shreyas Iyer has decided to take a six-month break from red-ball cricket due to recurring back issues. However, the right-handed batter is available for selection in the white-ball formats. Iyer last played for the national cricket team during the Champions Trophy 2025 final, where India defeated New Zealand.
