Pant’s back for SA Tests but Shami’s wait continues
Rishabh Pant returns to India's Test squad for the upcoming series against South Africa, starting November 14. His recovery from injury enhances India's batting depth and ability against spin. Akash Deep replaces Prasidh Krishna, while veteran pacer Mohammed Shami misses out due to readiness concerns. Pant's comeback is highly anticipated, especially by fans in Kolkata and Guwahati.
