Punjab’s Arshdeep, Harpreet included in India U-23 squad
Chandigarh, August 20
Punjab speedster Arshdeep Singh and all-rounder Harpreet Brar have been included in the India U-23 side that will host Bangladesh U-23 team for a five-match one-day series from September 19 at Raipur.
Arshdeep and Brar were also part of the Kings XI Punjab squad in 2019 IPL.
The team will be led by Priyam Garg, who had captained the India U-19 squad in the recently held youth ODI series in the UK.
Bengal’s U-23 skipper Ritwik Roy Choudhary, who is considered a handy all-rounder, has also been included in the 15-member squad.
The selectors picked the squad after considering the performances of the U-19 series in the UK and CK Nayudu Trophy. — TNS/Agencies
