Bumrah, Jadeja headline India-A’s final red-ball game
Follow
Key Indian Test squad members are set to participate in the final four-day match against New Zealand-A in Lincoln starting November 7, 2026. Jasprit Bumrah returns to the field for the first time since the Asian Games final on October 3, having been rested from the ongoing ODI series to focus on red-ball preparation.
Prasidh Krishna also joins the side following his recovery from a hamstring injury that sidelined him since late September. Ravindra Jadeja enters the contest with strong domestic momentum, having recently recorded a century and seven wickets across two Ranji Trophy appearances for Saurashtra.
This fixture serves as a critical acclimatization opportunity for the visitors before the two-Test series begins in Wellington on November 19.
