BCCI Withdraws Rohit Yadav from India U19 Squad Over Age Discrepancies
The BCCI has withdrawn Indian U19 leg-spinner Rohit Yadav from the upcoming ODI and multi-day series against Australia due to discrepancies in his age documents. Investigations revealed multiple birth years and Aadhaar record inconsistencies, leading to a two-year ban from domestic cricket. Saurashtra's Aryan Savsani and Haryana's Tanmay Baloda have been named as replacements in the One-Day and Multi-Day squads, respectively. The series will be held in Rajkot and Ahmedabad starting September 18.
