Mumbai, Dec 2 (IANS) After a match winning performance in the second Test in Kanpur, Shantakumaran Sreesanth made a comeback in the one-day side at the expense of an out-of-form Ishant Sharma.
The selection committee that met here Wednesday under the chairmanship of chief selector Krisnamachary Srikkanth also brought back Zaheer Khan in the side for the first two ODIs against Sri Lanka.
After recovering from a shoulder surgery, Zaheer made a successful comeback with the Test and now will spearhead the attack in ODIs as well.
But the selectors decided to rest both Zaheer and Harbhajan Singh for the two Twenty20 internationals against Sri Lanka. Ashok Dinda and R. Ashwin were the two new faces in the Twenty20 side while Rohit Sharma makes a comeback. Ishant also managed to retain his place in the Twenty20 side.
