India announced a 15-player squad on Friday for the upcoming Tests against New Zealand, beginning on October 16 in Bengaluru. While Rohit Sharma will lead the side, the vice-captaincy, which was left vacant for the Bangladesh series, has now been officially handed to star pacer Jasprit Bumrah for the three Tests

Ahead of the three-match Test series against New Zealand, Team India captain Rohit Sharma stated that the team management will manage the workload of pacer Mayank Yadav.
"Mayank has shown what he is capable of, but we need to be cautious with him. He has dealt with several injuries in the past, so we don't want to rush him. We'll monitor him daily and gradually build up his workload with the red ball. Our aim is to develop him progressively rather than throwing him straight into international cricket," said Rohit during the pre-match press conference.
