India Names Separate ODI and Test Squads for New Zealand Tour with Split Captaincy
India has announced separate squads for the upcoming five-match ODI and two-match Test series against New Zealand in November. Shubman Gill will captain the first three ODIs and the Test team, while Shreyas Iyer will lead the final two ODIs. Key players like Jasprit Bumrah will play only Tests, and Ravindra Jadeja has been omitted from the ODI squads. Akash Deep and Anshul Kamboj return to the Test squad, with Rishabh Pant's participation subject to fitness clearance. The selections reflect workload management ahead of the World Test Championship and ODI World Cup preparations.
