India B include of Priyank Panchal, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Baba Aparajith and India ODI player Kedar Jadhav. Since there are three openers in the side, one of them will move down the order. Jaiswal, who scored a double-century against Jharkhand in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, will draw the maximum limelight.

The India U-19 batsman will have a chance to make it to India A squad based on his performances in Deodhar Trophy. Vijay Shankar, who was ignored for a place in India’s T20Is squad, is also a part of India B.

Gill, captain of India C, will look to do well and earn a recall in white-ball team. He is a part of the Test side but is unlikely to make his debut due to presence of Rohit Sharma and Mayank Agarwal, who will also play for India C.
