For the upcoming last two Test matches of the little master Sachin Tendulkar against the West Indies squad, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the names of the fifteen players on Wednesday.

As a shock, the BCCI's selection committee has opted out-of-form pacer Ishant Sharma over experienced bowler Zaheer Khan for the two Tests.

All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja and batsman Suresh Raina have been shown the door as Jadeja is struggling from a shoulder injury while, Raina is replaced by the in-form batsman Shikhar Dhawan.

The spin department will be handled by Ravichandran Ashwin, Pragyan Ojha and Amit Mishra as Harbhajan Singh was dropped despite performing good at the domestic level.

The first of the two Test matches will be played from November 6-10 at Kolkata while, the second one is scheduled from November 14-18 at Mumbai.

The list of the fifteen players - Mahendra Singh Dhoni (Capt), Sachin Tendulkar, Shikhar Dhawan, Murali Vijay, Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, R Ashwin, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar, Pragyan Ojha, Amit Mishra, Umesh Yadav, Mohammed Shami and Ishant Sharma.
