The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday announced replacements for Rohit Yadav in the India U-19 squads for the upcoming multi-format series against Australia U-19.
Saurashtra's Aryan Savsani and Haryana's Tanmay Baloda have been named as Yadav's replacements in the One-Day and Multi-Day squads respectively.
The decision was made after Yadav was withdrawn from the India U-19 squads following age related discrepancies.

Yadav had originally been selected in both squads for India's upcoming fixtures against Australia U-19 in Rajkot and Ahmedabad.
However, the BCCI subsequently handed him a two-year ban for allegedly misrepresenting his age.
