Olympic bronze medallist Yogeshwar Dutt will spearhead the Indian challenge in the Dave Schultz Memorial Invitational tournament in Colorado Springs, USA from January 30 to February 1 in the absence of star wrestler Sushil Kumar.
Sushil, however, is likely to join the team later in Colorado Springs for training.
"Sushil may join the team later for training but he is not going to take part in the competition," secretary of Wrestling Federation of India, Vinod Tomar told PTI.
A five-member freestyle wrestling team will be leaving for the USA tonight.
The Indian contingent comprise of Rahul Aware (57kg), Bajrang (61kg), Yogeshwar (65kg), Praveen Rana (70kg) and Narsingh Pancham Yadav (74kg).
However, the women's team would not be travelling to Colorado Springs as the training-cum-competition programme for women's freestyle and Greco-roman sides would end by January 27.
Squad: Rahul Aware (57kg), Bajrang (61kg), Yogeshwar (65kg), Praveen Rana (70kg) and Narsingh Pancham Yadav (74kg).
