Mumbai: There was no surprise except for the exclusion of an injured Sachin Tendulkar as the national selection committee of Board of Control for Cricket in India, headed by Kiran More, named the Indian sqaud for the one-day series against England on Tuesday.
Kiran More had been camping in Mumbai since the start of the third Test and the team was named on the penultimate day of the third and last Test.
The committee has retained the same team that had humbled Pakistan in Pakistan, except for Tendulkar.
Venugopal Rao has been drafted into the team as Tendulkar's replacement.
The first two matches of the ODI series will be held on March 28 and 31 at Delhi and Faridabad respectively.
The team: Rahul Dravid, Virender Sehwag, Mohammad Kaif, Irfan Pathan, MS Dhoni, Yuvraj Singh, Gautam Gambhir, Suresh Raina, Munaf Patel, RP Singh, S Sreesanth, Romesh Pawar, Harbhajan Singh, Ajit Agarkar and Venugopal Rao.
