भारतीय क्रिकेट कंट्रोल बोर्ड (बीसीसीआई) की जूनियर चयन समिति ने अगले माह बांग्लादेश में होने वाले एशिया कप के लिए मंगलवार को 15 सदस्यीय अंडर-19 टीम की घोषणा कर दी। बांग्लादेश की राजधानी ढाका में 29 सितंबर से शुरू होने वाले एशिया कप के लिए जूनियर चयन समिति ने यहां अपनी बैठक में टीम का चयन किया।
Pawan Shah will lead the side as captain, while the team will carry two wicketkeepers, Anuj Rawat and Prabh Simran Singh. A point of interest is the omission of Arjun Tendulkar; despite his previous involvement in the Test series in Sri Lanka, he didn't make the cut this time.
Beyond the Asia Cup, selectors have also put together India-A and India-B teams for a four-nation ODI series in Lucknow starting September 12th. Arjun Tendulkar was not selected for these squads either. The action starts on September 12th, with India-A playing Afghanistan-A and India-B facing Nepal U-19. Two days later, on September 14th, India-A will play Nepal and India-B will take on Afghanistan.
