Hence, Test specialists like Ajinkya Rahane and Cheteshwar Pujara will need to be kept busy. Sources close to BCCI told PTI that the two star batsmen might be a part of India A's squad to take on England Lions in February.

"The fast bowlers workload management is a different issue but in case of some of the Test specialists, we might play them against England Lions. England Lions are coming for a full series where they will play four day Tests as well as List A and T20 matches," a BCCI source privy to the development told PTI Saturday.
