Anvay Dravid, 17, and Aaryavir Sehwag, 18, have been named in India's Under-19 ODI squad for the three-match series against Australia starting September 18. Anvay, a wicketkeeper-batter, retained his place after scoring 14 and 87 in youth ODIs on last month's Sri Lanka tour. Aaryavir earns his maiden India call-up while playing in the Delhi Premier League.
Both are part of the ODI squad only, not the multi-day fixtures. Lakshya Raichandani will captain the ODI side, with Yashbardhan Singh Chauhan leading the multi-day squad. The three one-day matches and the first multi-day game will be played in Rajkot, Ahmedabad hosts the second.
Promising Goa all-rounder Chigurupati Venkata has also been included in the ODI squad after a five-wicket haul in the Sri Lanka tour.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Both sources carry the same PTI wire copy with identical framing: the headline leads on the cricketing sons, and the body provides squad details neutrally. Rediff.com adds a nostalgic line about the fathers' past partnership, while The Federal notes Aaryavir's maiden call-up and Anvay's recent Sri Lanka scores. Neither outlet offers independent reporting or editorial slant. The core story, two famous surnames in a junior squad, is straightforward. What matters is performance: how the 17-year-old and 18-year-old handle the Australia series starting September 18.
