Hardik Pandya Named in India A Squad for Australia Series

Hardik Pandya has been included in the India A squad for the three-match One-Day series against Australia A, scheduled to be held in Puducherry from September 22 to October 11.

Pandya's participation remains subject to fitness clearance following his recovery from a quadriceps injury that sidelined him since the IPL 2026 season.

The series features two multi-day matches and three one-day games, with Devdutt Padikkal and Ruturaj Gaikwad named as captains for the respective formats.
