Japan, looking to qualify for the 2012 London Olympics, were scheduled to host the U-22 friendly on March 29 at National Stadium but decided to make the trip instead as Uzbekistan opted not to come to Japan amid concerns over the earthquake-triggered nuclear crisis.
The venue in Uzbekistan is yet to be decided.
The JFA announced a 23-man squad that includes Nagoya Grampus striker Kensuke Nagai and Gamba Osaka midfielder Takashi Usami.
Japan are scheduled to leave for Uzbekistan on Tuesday and return home on March 30.
