Fit-again Rishabh Pant to lead India A vs South Africa A, Sarfaraz Khan misses out
Rishabh Pant will return to competitive cricket as captain of India A for two four-day matches against South Africa A at the end of October. Having recovered from a foot fracture, Pant aims to regain form before the home Test series against South Africa starting November 14. Notable omissions include Sarfaraz Khan, despite his previous strong performances.
