Capello Summons New Names for U.S. Friendly
Cheryshev, 21, and Smolov, 22, have been the driving force behind Russia's under-21 team, scoring 10 goals between them to secure European championships qualification.
They were both included in Capello's provisional squad for the first time last week.
Otherwise, just two players who featured in Russia's last match, a 1-0 win over Azerbaijan, were left out of the squad, namely Lokomotiv Moscow's uncapped midfielder Dmitry Tarasov and third-choice stopper Anton Shunin, replaced by Alexander Belenov of FC Kuban, According to R-Sport.
Capello has given regular fringe players another chance to win a first senior cap, with Dynamo Moscow defender Vladimir Granat and the Lokomotiv Moscow pair of Magomed Ozdoev and Maxim Grigoryev all included.
Ex-Chelsea full back Yuri Zhirkov was in the provisional squad but was eventually snubbed by the Italian coach, possibly to free him up to play for his title-challenging club Anzhi.

The match against the U.S. is in the southern city of Krasnodar on November 14.
