India Considers Resting Key Players for Final ODIs Ahead of New Zealand Test Series
India's cricket team may rest key players Shubman Gill, Jasprit Bumrah, and others for the final two ODIs against New Zealand due to tight scheduling before the Test series. The ODI series ends on November 15, with the first Test starting November 19, leaving limited recovery time. Reports suggest a split coaching staff and a weaker ODI lineup led by Shreyas Iyer. The scheduling has drawn criticism for impacting player workload and preparation, with no official confirmation yet from BCCI.
