The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced India’s squads for the one-off Test and three-match ODI series against Afghanistan. Three new players, Gurnoor Brar, Manav Suthar and Harsh Dubey, have been selected for the Test team. Star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has been rested for the series. Contrary to what the reports had predicted, Jasprit Bumrah was left out of both the teams, who is currently playing in the IPL, and his workload needs to be managed well.

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retained as India announce squads for Afghanistan series

In the ODIs, much to the relief of fans, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retained their spots. Hardik Pandya, though in the loop, will be subject to fitness clearance. The biggest addition was that of Prince Yadav, the LSG pacer who has been so impressive this year. Along with him, Brar made the cut too, along with Dubey. The one-off Test is set to take place between June 6-10, just shortly after the conclusion of the IPL 2026, while the three-match ODI series will follow and take place between June 14-20.

Although the Test match is not part of the current ICC World Test Championship cycle, the ODI series will be important for India as they begin preparations for the ICC Cricket World Cup in the 50-over format. The chairman of the senior men’s selection committee, Ajit Agarkar, along with the other selectors, met with BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia on Tuesday in Guwahati to pick the squad for the upcoming series. Multiple selectors were spotted at various IPL 2026 venues during the course of the tournament, keeping an eye on players.

India Test Squad: Shubman Gill (C), Jaiswal, Sai Sudharsan, KL Rahul (VC), Rishabh Pant, Padikkal, Nitish Kumar Reddy, Sundar, Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammed Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Manav Suthar, Gurnoor, Dhruv Jurel, Harsh Dubey

India ODI squad: Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma, Iyer, Ishan Kishan, Shreyas Iyer (vc), KL Rahul, Washington Sundar, Prince Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav, Prasidh Krishna, Arshdeep Singh, Gurnoor Brar, Harsh Dubey
