Saransh Jain Earns Maiden India Test Call-Up for Sri Lanka Series
Saransh Jain, a 33-year-old off-spinning all-rounder from Madhya Pradesh, has earned his maiden call-up to the Indian Test squad for the upcoming two-match series against Sri Lanka. Replacing the injured Washington Sundar, Jain's selection follows strong performances in domestic cricket and India A tours, including notable contributions in the Ranji Trophy and unofficial Tests in Sri Lanka. His rise reflects years of consistent red-ball cricket, supported by a family background in cricket and personal challenges, including his father's concealed cancer battle.
