In a meeting here, the All India Senior Selection Committee also announced the teams for the October 8 to 11 Challenger Series, featuring India Red, India Green and India Blue.
While India Red would be led by Yuvraj Singh, Suresh Raina will captain India Green.
A star-studded India Blue will have national skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni at the helm. The team has India regulars Sachin Tendulkar and Harbhajan Singh in it.
The selection panel also announced that opener Gautam Gabhir's fitness for the Champions Trophy, starting September 22, would be assessed tomorrow.
Gambhir is nursing a groin injury which forced him to return from the tri-series in Sri Lanka without playing a single match.
