The next generation of two of Indian cricket's biggest names is set to take the field in national colours. Rahul Dravid's son Anvay and Virender Sehwag's son Aaryavir have been named in India's Under-19 ODI squad for the upcoming series against Australia.

The BCCI selection committee announced separate squads for the three one-day matches and two multi-day fixtures, with the ODI series beginning on September 18. Lakshya Raichandani will lead the one-day side, while Yashbardhan Singh Chauhan has been named captain for the multi-day games.

Both Anvay Dravid and Aaryavir Sehwag feature only in the ODI squad.

For 18-year-old Aaryavir, the selection marks his maiden India U-19 call-up. The young batter is currently playing in the Delhi Premier League.

Anvay, meanwhile, has retained his place in the India U-19 ODI squad after featuring in the side that toured Sri Lanka last month. The 17-year-old wicketkeeper-batter scored 14 and 87 in the two youth ODIs he played during that tour.

The Australia series will see the sons of two former India stars share the India U-19 dressing room, with both earning their places through the junior selection setup.
