Yuvraj Singh was not amongst the list of players who will face up to Australia. Instead the selectors decided to stick with Suresh Raina who made a memorable maiden Test tour to Sri Lanka and finally included the much talked about Cheteshwar Pujara.
The usual suspects return in Zaheer Khan while Harbhajan Singh is the leading spinner in the three spin squad that includes Amit Mishra and Pragyan Ojha. Sreesanth and Ishant Sharma round up the bowling while the batsmen pick themselves.
Indian team for Test series against Australia:
Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, V V S Laxman, Suresh Raina, Harbhajan Singh, Amit Mishra, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, S Sreesanth, Pragyan Ojha, M Vijay, Cheteshwar Pujara.
