Bengaluru, Nov 9 (PTI) Wicketkeeper batter Anvay Dravid, son of former India captain and coach Rahul Dravid, was on Saturday named in the Karnataka probable list of players for the under-16 Vijay Merchant Trophy, beginning from December 6.
Anvay is the one of the three wicketkeepers named in the 35-member probable list and other two are: Aditya Jha and Joy James.
Anvay, who had captained the state under-14 side last year in the inter-zone meet, had cracked an unbeaten 200 for Bangalore Zone against Tumkur Zone in the KSCA Under-16 Inter Zonal tournament recently, underlining his potential.
His elder brother Samit is currently playing for Karnataka in the Cooch Behar Trophy against Baroda in Vadodara.
Samit, a medium pace all-rounder, made a 71 off 141 balls (11×4), but Karnataka succumbed to Baroda by an innings and 212 runs.
Former state players Kunal Kapoor and Adithya B Sagar will be the head coach and bowling coach of the under-16 team respectively for the Vijay Merchant Trophy. PTI UNG 7/21/2024 TAP
