Fit-again batsman Mohammad Kaif was recalled by India's selectors in a 15-man squad on Sunday for the last two one-dayers against Sri Lanka.

Kaif, a one-day specialist, missed the first five matches of the series because of a hamstring injury and was asked by the selectors to prove his fitness in a domestic game.

Uncapped all rounder Vikram Singh, 21, was also called up in the only other change to the squad after India lost the fifth game of the series by five wickets on Sunday. India lead the series 4-1.
