The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has officially announced a revamped Test squad, signaling the dawn of a new chapter in Indian cricket. With Shubman Gill appointed as the new Test captain and Rishabh Pant making a remarkable comeback as vice-captain and wicketkeeper, the team reflects a bold and future-focused approach.
India’s selection panel has struck a thoughtful balance between youth and experience. Promising batters like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sai Sudharsan, and Abhimanyu Easwaran join hands with seasoned campaigners such as KL Rahul, Ravindra Jadeja, and Jasprit Bumrah to form a well-rounded unit.
With the World Test Championship cycle in full swing, this squad appears equipped to take on both home and overseas challenges with confidence, depth, and versatility.
