Auqib Nabi, the Jammu & Kashmir fast bowler, stepped onto the field for India in the ongoing One Day International series in New Zealand on 13 November 2026. The debut comes after strong performances in the Ranji Trophy, where he earned a reputation for red‑ball skill. Rather than being thrust into the Test arena, Nabi has embraced the white‑ball opportunity, aiming to translate his domestic success to the international stage.
