Part of the NPS squad, Sandhu is on stand-by for Australia A, said a CA statement. Also, Tom Cooper replaced Phil Hughes in the Australia A squad as the latter returned home due to a death in his family. Hughes will re-join the squad in Darwin at a later date. The next match of the series will be played between India A and South Africa A at the Gardens Oval in Darwin Tuesday.
