| Harbhajan included in Test squad for Pak series
BCCI selectors have chosen the Indian team for the first two-Tests of the three-match series at home against Pakistan. Harbhajan Singh and Murali Kartik have been included in the 14-man squad whereas Virender Sehwag, Irfan Pathan and Gautam Gambhir failed to find a place.
The first Test match between the arch rivals begins on November 22nd at the Feroz Shah Kotla ground in Delhi. The second and third Tests will be played in Kolkata and Bangalore respectively.
No place for Sehwag
Sehwag was in the running to earn a Test recall, primarily due to his astonishing record against Pakistan. The opener has amassed four scores of over 150 against the arch rivals – including two double-centuries and a triple-century. He has averaged over 90 in the nine Test matches against Pakistan.
India squad: Dinesh Karthik, Wasim Jaffer, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Singh Dhoni (vice-captain, wicket-keeper), Anil Kumble (captain), Zaheer Khan, RP Singh, Sreesanth, Harbhajan Singh, Murali Kartik.
