Two more players included before the Nagpur Test
The Rohit Sharma-led side have strengthened the squad with two more supporting players as they prepare for four Test matches which will kick off at the VCA Stadium in Nagpur from February 9. Jayant Yadav from Haryana, who has played for India before, and Pulkit Narang from Delhi have been added to the squad as net shooters. Narang currently plays for the army.
