Jadeja Returns as Saransh Jain Earns Maiden Test Call-up for Sri Lanka Series

Saransh Jain, at 33, receives his first Test call after years of faithful domestic service, while Ravindra Jadeja returns from rest to lend the side his seasoned craft. Yet the squad carries uncertainty at its core, with both its premier fast bowler and a key batter named conditionally, their participation subject to the body's own verdict.
