The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the full India A squad for the upcoming ODI series vs Australia A.
Three matches are supposed to be played in this series, all in Kanpur. Notably, the squad for the first ODI is different from that of the second and third ODIs. Having said that, Shreyas Iyer has been appointed as captain for all three games.
Abhishek Sharma, who is displaying blistering form as an opener for the senior Indian T20 team at the ACC Asia Cup 2025, has also been called up, albeit only for two of the three games.
