Padikkal Stays In Australia As Backup; Shami’s Travel Plans Uncertain

India A’s Devdutt Padikkal will stay in Australia as a backup for the Indian team during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, despite a modest performance against Australia A. B Sai Sudharsan could also be kept for familiarity with conditions. Meanwhile, there are no immediate plans for Mohammed Shami’s inclusion in the squad, with the BCCI waiting for more domestic matches to assess his fitness.
