Team India’s management is considering resting key players like Shubman Gill and Jasprit Bumrah for the one-off Afghanistan Test (June 6–10) due to a packed schedule following IPL 2026. With no WTC points at stake and little turnaround time, workload management is the priority. Fringe players like Gurnoor Brar, Manav Suthar, Devdutt Padikkal, Harsh Dubey could earn maiden call-ups instead.
