Iyer, Pant to lead IND A in New Zealand A one-dayers

[sandeep]

Shubman Gill.  Already in India A before he plays FC?   Must be good.   

 

Is Samson injured?  

[Shunya]

lol @ conspiracy theories...  

Pant could have been tried for all 5 games here...and dunno why is he the captain? seems odd decision to give such responsibility right now, though its just a warm up game.

Also, Sreevats Goswami? Could have tried Ishan Kishan as well...

Shubman Gill to miss start of New Zealand A one-dayers

 

 

Shubman Gill, the 18-year old Punjab batsman, who earned a maiden India A call-up on Sunday, has been ruled out of the first three one-dayers against New Zealand A because of a side strain.

Gill, who was set to join the India A squad in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday, injured himself at a training session in Mohali prior to joining Punjab's pre-season camp, ahead of their Ranji Trophy opener on October 6.

"I've been advised bed rest for a week after which there will be a fitness assessment," Gill, for whom this was also a maiden call-up to Punjab's Ranji side, told ESPNcricinfo. "I'm trying to get fit soon. Hopefully I can play the fourth and fifth one-dayers."

Dhawal and unadkat lol oh man. Sad day for world cricket.

Why no Krunal Pandya?

[kruiser]

According to news, the teams are different because BCCI wants the players to miss least amount of Ranji Games. No conspiracies here! 

Pant will only miss the second Ranji game and Iyer is missing none because Mumbai is not playing during those A games.

Vijay Shankar is selected for the full series

indicates that they are trying this guy out well and if shankar perfroms he has good chances to come into the national side at some stage.

 

i beleive he is too good as a batsman and if he bowls even a lil , he can be picked in australian and african trips.

[King Tendulkar]

Well at least they didn't pick Nehra

Could have tried Nagarkoti and Sundar.

They probably felt they are both too raw. There have been very few U-19 players. Would have liked to see Chahar as well.

it was an interesting choice since they seem to have earmarked him for LOIs.
