All rounder Hardik Pandya has been chosen to lead a 15-member India A squad for the practice game against Australia, the selection committee confirmed on Tuesday.
While announcing the squad for the one-off Test against Bangladesh, the committee also revealed the 15 names for the three-day warm-up tie that will be played in CCI, Mumbai from February 16-18, ahead of the four-match Test series between India and Australia.
Hardik, who has been featuring regularly in the limited-overs formats, is yet to make his Test debut for India but has been a part of the squad since the first Test against England. He is also a part of the A squad for the three-day game against Bangladesh, which will be led by Abhinav Mukund.
