After a 14-year absence, Virender Sehwag and Rahul Dravid are set to feature together in an Indian cricket team once again. The former Indian legends last appeared in the same playing XI in a Test match held in Adelaide against Australia. Now, fans of the sport can rejoice, as the sons of the two cricketing legends, Anvay Dravid and Aaryavir Sehwag, have been called up for the India Under-19 squad for their upcoming One-day series against Australia.
The series will commence on September 18 and will consist of three 50-over matches in Rajkot on September 18, 21, and 23.
