The Indian national selectors have named the squad for the 2-match Test series against New Zealand. Prithvi Shaw has made his way back into the team which also has Ishant Sharma named in it, but his inclusion will be subject to how well does he do in the fitness test. The pacer injured his ankle in a Ranjhi Trophy game for Delhi.

With Rohit Sharma being ruled out of the ODIs and Tests due to a calf injury, Mayank Agarwal has been named as his replacement in the ODI squad. 
 
"Rohit sustained a left calf muscle strain during the fifth T20I against New Zealand at Tauranga on Sunday. He underwent an MRI scan in Hamilton on Monday. The opening batsman has been ruled out of the upcoming ODI and the Test series and will be referred to the National Cricket Academy for further management of his injury," the BCCI release stated.
 
"The senior selection committee has named Mayank Agarwal in the ODI squad as Rohit's replacement."
 
Navdeep Saini has also been named in the squad which sees Shubman Gill also making the cut thanks to some impressive scores in the India 'A' games against New Zealand 'A'.
 
Prithvi Shaw had earlier been named in the ODI squad after Shikhar Dhawan suffered a shoulder injury in the series against Australia last month which forced him out of the New Zealand tour.
 
India's Test squad: Virat Kohli (Captain), Mayank Agarwal, Prithvi Shaw, Shubman Gill, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane (vice-captain), Hanuma Vihari, Wriddhiman Saha (wicket-keeper), Rishabh Pant (wicket-keeper), R. Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, Jasprit Bumrah, Umesh Yadav, Mohd Shami, Navdeep Saini, Ishant Sharma (subject to fitness clearance).
