Former India opener Virender Sehwag has recalled why Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals) opted for Pradeep Sangwan instead of a young Virat Kohli during the inaugural Indian Premier League (IPL) season

His former Delhi teammate Pradeep Sangwan, who was also Virat's teammate during the victorious U-19 World Cup campaign in 2008, has spoken about the champion batter's emotional side.

Wicketkeeper-batsman Anuj Rawat scored unbeaten 95 off 85 balls as Delhi beat Uttarakhand by four wickets in the pre-quarter final of the Vijay Hazare Trophy on Sunday.

Delhi named a 22-member squad for the upcoming Vijay Hazare trophy that also features Shikhar Dhawan, Nitish Rana, and Unmukt Chand.

Senior players like Unmukt Chand, Manan Sharma and Milind Kumar have also been dropped from the team.

The cricketer, whose name has not yet been revealed will be the second after former India U-19 player Pradeep Sangwan to have tested positive.

Pradeep Sangwan, who played for Kolkata Knight Riders in the 2013 edition of the Indian Premier League, was the first Indian professional cricketer to be banned after banned substances were found in his urine sample.

Manoj Prabhakar, who was part of the Indian side when Sachin Tendulkar made his Test debut in Pakistan in 1989, said the just-retired batting maestro remained the same person throughout his "controversy-free" career.

The BCCI has banned Delhi and Kolkata Knight Riders pacer Pradeep Sangwan for failing a dope test during the sixth edition of the Indian Premier League this year.
