Saha back in the mix with India A call-up, Pant in ODI squad

New Delhi: Wicket-keeper Wriddhiman Saha is back in the scheme of things for India in the the longer format after being named in the A squad for the West Indies tour comprising five one-dayers and three four-day games beginning July 11.
The 34-year-old was India’s number one Test wicket-keeper until a career-threatening shoulder injury ruled him out of action for almost one year.
Saha, who underwent a surgery in August last year, made his Bengal comeback with the Syed Mushtaq Ali and also played five games for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL which ended on Sunday. With Rishabh Pant establishing himself in the Test team in his absence, Saha will have to prove himself to the selectors again. The four-day games against West Indies A will be played from July 24 and will be preceded by a five-match one-day series from July 11.
The tour has been scheduled ahead of the Test series against the West Indies as part of the inaugural ICC Test Championship which begins right after the 50-over World Cup.
