Indian Squad announced for Sri Lanka Series

Indian selector announced the 15 member India Squad for the test series to be played against Sri Lanka on Indian soil. Temperamental fast bowler S.Sreesanth is also given chance by the selector in the fast bowling crisis in team India. Zaheer Khan as expected is included in the team after missing out several important series due to shoulder injury.

The team will be lead by M.S.Dhoni. Opener M.Vijay and middle order batsman S.Badrinath also included in the squad. Munaf Patel and S.Tyagi was ignored by the selectors of the Sri Lankan test match series, while Ashish Nehra has given the rest.

The selection of S.Sreesanth raised eyebrows of few experts as he didn’t made any impact recently with the bowl. However he has done well for team India in the past and selectors knows if he can control his temperament then he can be one of the superb fast bowler for India.

Sreesanth will make comeback to the team after almost 1 and half year. He last played a test match for India against South Africa in April 2008.
