Shubman Gill's India Ready For Red-ball Return As Afghanistan Await In Historic New Chandigarh Test
New PCA Stadium: Less than a week after the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 ended, Shubman Gill's India are gearing up to return to traditional cricket when they host Afghanistan in a one-off Test at the New PCA Stadium in New Chandigarh starting on Saturday.
Although this match does not count towards the World Test Championship cycle, India has stated they will treat it as seriously as any other Test.
This match is India's first Test since their series against South Africa in November. It poses a unique challenge for a squad still adjusting to franchise cricket. Eight players from the 15-man squad participated in the IPL final, leaving little time to shift from white-ball cricket to the patience and discipline required in the longest format.
