All-rounder Hardik Pandya and opener Lokesh Rahul, whose bans were lifted on Thursday, have been included in the squad for the series against New Zealand and India A respectively.

The two-day warm up match between India A and Bangladesh will be a chance for some players to knock the doors of Indian side. Tamil Nadu opener Abhinav Mukund will be leading the 14-member India A before the one-off Test start on February 9 in Hyderabad.

Chasing a challenging 304, England started off on a good note as openers Roy (62) and Alex Hales (40) forged a 95-run partnership before Hales was sent back to the pavilion by chinaman spinner Kuldep Yadav in the 15th over of the innings.

India vice-captain Virat Kohli is likely to play second unofficial Test between India A and Australia A in Chennai on July 29.
