New Delhi, Oct 17 (IANS) India’s off-spinner Harbhajan Singh failed to make a comeback in the ODI side as the selectors Monday decided to retain the 15-member squad for the remaining three games against England.
An off-color Harbhajan was dropped for the first two ODIs. He had to leave the England tour mid-way with an abdominal strain.
The selection committee, under the chairmanship of Kris Srikkanth, met here at the Ferozeshah Kotla on the sidelines of the second ODI and decided to retain the same side after India registered its second win in the series.
The selectors made two changes in the Twenty20 team for the lone international at Kolkata slated for October 29. Parthiv Patel and Gautam Gambhir will be making room for Robin Uthappa and Yusuf Pathan. Gambhir will be unavailable due to his marriage.
