Saransh Jain Earns First India Call-Up for Sri Lanka Test Series

Saransh Jain's Historic Selection

At 33 years old, Saransh Jain, an off-spinning all-rounder from Madhya Pradesh, has received his first call-up to the Indian cricket team. He has been named in the 15-member squad for the upcoming two-match Test series against Sri Lanka, set to commence on August 15. This selection marks a significant milestone for Jain, who has dedicated over a decade to domestic cricket, particularly in the Ranji Trophy. He steps in for the injured Washington Sundar, having recently toured Sri Lanka with the India A team, where he showcased his skills by scoring an unbeaten 70 in one match and taking six wickets in total after a less impressive start.
