India retain squad for fifth ODI

November 15, 2007 20:25 IST

Rahul Dravid [ Images ] will continue to remain on the sidelines with the Indian selectors deciding to retain the 15-member squad for the fifth and final one-day international against Pakistan in Jaipur [ Images ] on Sunday.

Dravid was dropped from the squad for the first two matches against Pakistan after his insipid show in the home series against Australia [ Images ].

He found himself out of favour again when the team for the third and fourth one dayers were picked, leaving him with the Jaipur match as his last hope for a comeback in the ongoing series.

Dravid though continued to stamp his class on the domestic circuit, slamming another ton in the Ranji trophy match against Himachal Pradesh [ Images ] in his hometown Bangalore on Thursday.

India [ Images ]: MS Dhoni [ Images ] (Captain), Yuvraj Singh [ Images ] (Vice Captain), Sourav Ganguly [ Images ], SachinTendulkar, Gautam Gambhir [ Images ], Virender Sehwag [ Images ], Robin Uthappa [ Images ], Irfan Pathan [ Images ], R P Singh, Rohit Sharma [ Images ], Murali Kartik [ Images ], Zaheer Khan [ Images ], S Sreesanth [ Images ], Harbhajan Singh [ Images ] and Praveen Kumar [ Images ].
