Sreesanth dropped


MUMBAI, Aug 7: India on Tuesday left out fast bowler Shanthakumaran Sreesanth for the seven-match one-day series against hosts England starting later this month. Sreesanth was replaced by seamer Munaf Patel in the only change to the 15-man squad that defeated South Africa 2-1 in the Future Cup series in Ireland in June.

Sreesanth, 24, was fined 50 percent of his match fees by referee Ranjan Madugalle after shoulder-butting England captain Michael Vaughan during the second Test at Trent Bridge last week.

Sreesanth also hurled a head-high beamer at Kevin Pietersen and later overstepped the crease by several feet while bowling a bouncer to Paul Collingwood in the hotly-contested match.

The first one-dayer will be played in Southampton on Aug 21.

Squad: Rahul Dravid (captain), Sachin Tendulkar, Saurav Ganguly, Yuvraj Singh, Gautam Gambhir, Robin Uthappa, Rohit Sharma, Dinesh Karthik, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Ramesh Powar, Piyush Chawla, Ajit Agarkar, Zaheer Khan, Rudra Pratap Singh, Munaf Patel.—AFP
