RAHUL Dravid received a surprise recall to India's one-day squad after a two-year absence while selectors left out the injured Yuvraj Singh and Harbhajan Singh for the limited-overs series against England.
The last time the 38-year-old Dravid, who has scored 10,765 runs in 339 one-day internationals, played an ODI was in September 2009 against the West Indies during the Champions Trophy in South Africa. India is struggling in England and the world's top-ranked test side trails 0-2 with two tests left in the four-match series. Seamer Shanthakumaran Sreesanth failed to find a spot as India went with Zaheer Khan, Praveen Kumar, Ishant Sharma, Munaf Patel and Vinay Kumar as the five pacemen in the 16-man squad. ODI world champion India will play a Twenty20 match on August 31 followed by five ODIs starting on September 3.
