Unmukt Chand has been drafted in as the 16th member of the North Zone side for the Deodhar Trophy inter-zonal limited overs tournament.

The U-19 World Cup winning captain wasn't a part of the original 15-member squad led by Gautam Gambhir but his match-winning century in the Vijay Hazare Trophy final prompted the selectors to draft him as an additional member of the side.
