India’s cricket management plans to keep pacers Arshdeep Singh, Gurnoor Brar and Auqib Nabi with the touring group to help prepare for an upcoming Test series against New Zealand. Multiple outlets say the trio will remain beyond the ongoing limited-overs phase, while India shifts focus toward red-ball training ahead of the Tests.
The reporting centres on a broader preparation plan involving support staff changes and a Test camp. Times of India and NDTV both describe a transition in coaching emphasis after the ODI stage, with a camp scheduled for early November. The outlets also connect the decision to practical preparation for what are described as important New Zealand Tests, including the World Test Championship series starting in mid-November.
Across sources, the three players are consistently identified, and the decision is linked to preparing for challenging conditions. Times of India adds details about who will travel with which squad and notes India’s position in the ODI series, while The Hindu mainly foregrounds that the players will stay back for Test preparations during the ongoing ODI campaign.
