Key Updates

This fresh squad announcement highlights BCCI’s focus on nurturing young talent and creating a strong bench strength for the future.
These squads reflect a blend of experienced and emerging players, providing a strong lineup to compete with Australia A and maintain the prestige of the Irani Cup. Fans can look forward to competitive and high-quality cricket across these upcoming contests.
