The India A cricket team is a national cricket team representing India. It is the second-tier of Indian international cricket, below the full India national cricket team.[3] The team is currently captained by Priyank Panchal in first-class cricket[4] and Sanju Samson in List A cricket. The team is coached by former Saurashtra player Shitanshu Kotak.[5][6]

The matches played by India A are not considered to be Test matches or One Day Internationals, instead receiving first-class and List A classification respectively.[3]

The team also played in NKP Salve Challenger Trophy as India Red. The team names were changed for the 2006 version of this tournament. India A became India Red. The team has won the NKP Salve Challenger Trophy four times (2001/02, 2003/04, 2004,05, 2009/10) and shared the trophy thrice (1998/99, 2006/07, 2011/12).
