The committee has picked Mumbai batter Ayush Mhatre to lead the strong 16-member squad. Bihar's 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who made a mark in the IPL 2025 for Rajasthan Royals, will also be seen opening alongside Mhatre for the multi-format tour that begins June 24 at the Loughbrough University Ground.
