India have suspended opening batsman KL Rahul and all-rounder Hardik Pandya with immediate effect following the controversial comments they made on a recent television show.

Rahul and Pandya, both of whom have featured in all formats for India in recent months, have been widely criticised for remarks that were widely construed to be sexist during the talk show Koffee with Karan earlier this week.

As a consequence, the Board of Control for Cricket in India revealed Rahul and Pandya will not feature in 'any form of cricket' and return to India to answer charges of misconduct and indiscipline.
