Rishabh Pant Ruled Out of India A's Third Unofficial Test, Fitness for New Zealand Series Uncertain
Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant has been ruled out of the third unofficial Test between India A and New Zealand A starting November 7 due to a side strain sustained during the Irani Cup. Although Pant has resumed skill training and reports no pain, he failed an initial fitness test and must pass a second before being cleared to travel for the two-Test series against New Zealand beginning November 19. His availability for the series remains uncertain, with team management awaiting medical clearance.
