After his fine hundred against Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy, Maharashtra's Gaikwad was named the India A team captain.

Ishan Kishan returns to international cricket, included in India A squad for Australia tour. Following his removal from BCCI’s contracted player list this year, Kishan now leads Jharkhand in Ranji Trophy before heading to Australia.

When the BCCI chose to remove top Indian batsmen Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer from their Central contracts for the 2024–24 season back in February, it made headlines. Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were dropped from the team because they didn't comply with the management's and team captain's disciplinary requirements or those of domestic cricket.
