Zaheer Khan recalled for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/New-Zealand-c754
Zaheer Khan, the Indian pace bowler, has been recalled to the squad for the remaining three One Day Internationals against the visiting New Zealand side.
The strike pacer had picked up a groin strain during the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Hyderabad-c792 Test which ruled him out of the deciding third Test which was won by the hosts to seal the series by 1-0. Zaheer also missed the opening two One Day Internationals
of the five-match series due to the injury, but now after having recovered completely, the spearhead pacer of India is all set to rejoin the team when India take on the Black Caps at Reliance Stadium, Vadodara on December 4th.
The 24-year-old right-arm medium pacer http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Praveen-Kumar-c82600 has also made a comeback after missing the first two one-days due to fever. Suresh Rina, however, has been rested by the Indian selectors for the rest of the series following MS
Dhoni’s comments that the players need rest. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/S-Sreesanth-c2398, who was leading the pace attack in the absence of Zaheer Khan, has also been rested for the remaining three ODIs. Both Raina and Sreesanth are expected to be part of the bunch that would leave early
for http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gary-Kirsten-c58527 to prepare for the Test series against Proteas which gets underway in Centurion from December 16th.
Wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha, who was drafted in for the first two ODIs, is also expected to pack his bags for an early departure to South Africa and would miss the last two ODIs accordingly. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Parthiv-Patel-c2159 has been called in to keep
the wickets after Saha leaves for South Africa. http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Karnataka-c801 in the domestic cricket.
Rohit Sharma, the http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 in August, has been called in for the last two ODIs. Sharma is currently playing for Mumbai in a Ranji Trophy clash against Gujarat
which would not finish before the Saturday’s game so he has been named in the squad for the fourth and fifth ODIs.
