Vaibhav Sooryavanshi excluded from India U19 team for Australia series

Summary

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is not included in the India U19 squad for the upcoming series against Australia starting September 18, 2026. His exclusion is attributed to a BCCI policy that prevents players from participating in multiple U19 World Cups. Sooryavanshi had previously played in the 2026 U19 World Cup, making him ineligible under the current rules. The squad features notable players such as Aaryavir Sehwag and Anvay Dravid. The first Test is scheduled for September 22, 2026.
