Yashasvi Jaiswal, the youngest double centurion in List A cricket, has been rewarded for his hard work as he has been picked to represent India B in the Deodhar Trophy starting October 31 in Ranchi.

The All India Senior Selection Committee announced the squads of India A, India B and India C for the domestic tournament with a lot of fresh faces.

Apart from Yashasvi, who is the third batsman — after K.V. Kaushal and Sanju Samson — to smash a double in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, Karnataka batsman Devdutt Padikkal and Chhattisgarh's Amandeep Khare have also been included.

Devdutt smashed 92 in the Vijay Hazare Trophy semifinal against Chhattisgarh; Khare also scored a fighting fifty in that match.

Priyank Panchal (Gujarat), Krishnappa Gowtham (Karnataka) and Sandeep Warrier (Kerala) have also earned call-ups.

India internationals Hanuma Vihari, Parthiv Patel and Shubman Gill will lead the three sides. Among the other big names, Ravichandran Ashwin and Mayank Agarwal will represent India A and India C respectively.
