Anukul Roy Replaces Harsh Dubey In India 'A' Squad For Sri Lanka Tri-series
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: All-rounder Anukul Roy has been added to the India A squad for the upcoming tri-series against Sri Lanka. The 27-year-old has replaced Harsh Dubey, who has received his maiden call-up to India's Test and ODI squads for the upcoming series against Afghanistan. The tri-series, scheduled to be held from June 9-21 in Dambulla, will also feature hosts Sri Lanka 'A', and Afghanistan 'A'.

He replaces Harsh Dubey, who has received his maiden call-up to Indias Test and ODI squads for the upcoming First Bank home series against Afghanistan, BCCI said in a release. Anukul first made his mark as the joint-highest wicket-taker in Indias victorious ICC Mens U19 World Cup campaign in 2018, claiming 14 wickets with his left-arm spin. Mumbai Indians signed him for Rs 20 Lakh the same year, but he featured in just one game across four seasons. Even so, he made his presence felt in the field and was regularly used by MI as a substitute fielder. Kolkata Knight Riders then secured him for Rs 20 Lakh at the 2022 auction, and he has remained with the franchise since. Anukul has provided a crucial contribution to KKR in IPL 2026. He has taken eight wickets and also scored 43 runs. His performance was clinical in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2025, where he was the third-highest run-scorer. He amassed 303 runs in 10 innings at an average of 60.60 and a strike rate of 160.31, playing several match-winning cameos in Jharkhands title run. India 'A' will begin their campaign against Sri Lanka 'A' on June 9, followed by a clash against Afghanistan 'A' on June 11. The round-robin stage continues until June 19, with the final scheduled to be played on June 21. The squad also includes Ayush Badoni, Nishant Sindhu, and Vipraj Nigam. Prabhsimran Singh and Kumar Kushagra have been named as wicketkeepers, while Suryansh Shedge, Yash Thakur, Yudhvir Singh, Anshul Kamboj, the third highest wicket-taker with 19 scalps, and Arshad Khan will handle the fast bowling department. 15-year-old Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has also been added to the squad for the first time. India 'A' will begin their campaign against Sri Lanka 'A' on June 9, followed by a clash against Afghanistan 'A' on June 11.
