Gurnoor Brar has replaced Kuldeep Yadav in the India Test squad for the two-match series in New Zealand starting November 19 in Wellington. Brar, therefore, will not be available for the final ODI of the series - which India are leading 2-1 - but no replacement for him has been named.
In another update, the BCCI confirmed that Rishabh Pant had joined the Test preparations in Wellington. As Cricinfo had reported on Thursday, Pant was given his fitness clearance by the BCCI medical staff after recovering from the side strain that had kept him out of action.
