Khela has yet to feature this season as he continues his fight for full fitness after summer surgery on a dislocated shoulder.
But boss Rob Smith believes he is now much closer - and is hopeful he will be ready to take his place in the first team squad after two reserve games in the next five days.
The Bucks host Nuneaton in the Central Conference at the New Bucks Head tonight (7.30pm) and then head to Redditch on Monday.
Youth team chiefs Iain Sankey and Andy Thompson will take charge of the team.
"Reserve games are a tool for me to get players games for players who need it," said boss Rob Smith.
"The one that sticks out is Indy. It's exactly what he needs and a great chance to get 90 minutes under his belt.
"Richard Teesdale hasn't had much of a part to play either so far, so he will play as well.
"Jon Adams and Chris Cornes will hopefully get 90 minutes.
"Gary Fitzpatrick and Steve Palmer will get a half each and Gary Birch will only do 45 as he will be playing for Rushall on Saturday."
Former Telford keeper Taylor, who left Kidderminster Harriers over the summer, has been drafted in to play in goal - though there are no plans to extend this into any permanent deal.
Entry tonight is £2 for adults, £1 for concessions and under-16s, and free for season ticket holders.
