Kishan was removed from the list of BCCI contracted players earlier this year after he had made himself unavailable for domestic tournaments despite not being on national duty.
“The Men’s Selection Committee has picked a 15-member India A squad for the upcoming tour of Australia. India A will play two first-class matches against Australia A in Mackay and Melbourne respectively and then take part in a three-day intra-squad game against Team India (Senior Men) in Perth,” the BCCI said in a press release.
The 26-year-old left-hander will lead Jharkhand in Ranji Trophy before flying Down Under with India A for the Australia tour.
Kishan made a century in the Duleep Trophy while playing for India C, besides playing for the Rest of India in the Irani Cup.
