Smaran Ravichandran has been selected in the India A squad for the unofficial Test series against New Zealand.
Smaran Ravichandran scored a stellar century, making 126 runs to help rescue Karnataka from a precarious score of 22 for four and push their total to 274.
In early 2020, a stress fracture forced Smaran to stay away from cricket for about 8 months, and he was subsequently left out of the Indian squad for the 2022 U-19 World Cup before making his breakthrough in 2024.
