India have decided to rest Sachin Tendulkar, Irfan Pathan and Harbhajan Singh for the second one-day international against Bangladesh at the Bangabandhu National Stadium in Dhaka on Sunday.

The trio will make way for Virender Sehwag and Zaheer Khan, who sat out of the first match in Chittagong on Thursday, while Murali Kartik will get to play his first game on the tour as he comes in for Harbhajan Singh.

Captain Sourav Ganguly said Dinesh Mongia would also find a place in the eleven for the day-night encounter although a final decision was yet to be made.

"We have to decide as to whom to leave out," Ganguly said as India look for a series whitewash in the last two matches to be played back to back under lights here.

Ganguly had said before the one-day series that he would give the youngsters a chance as the team prepares for the Pakistan series at home in February-March next year.

The newcomers proved a bit of a success. Sridharan Sriram made a good comeback to pick three for 43 but he might have liked to score a few runs with the bat.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who replaced Dinesh Kaarthick as wicketkeeper batsman, had an ordinary debut as he was run out after facing just one ball. Joginder Sharma of Haryana did reasonably well to pick 1-28.

Bangladesh's case seems to be more complicated. The hosts are expected to include paceman Mashrafe Mortaza in place of Mushfiqur Rahman but skipper Habibul Bashar is still not clear on his batting line-up.

Bashar said Javed Omar, who was not in the team for the first match, might play but he might not open the innings.

Rajin Saleh, who failed to score runs in Chittagong after being dropped from the second Test, might also face the axe.

"We have been making progress step by step in every match. Winning or losing is not in our minds, we are trying to improve," said Bashar who would be playing in his 100th one-dayer on Sunday.

He said the team needed more than one player to deliver.

"So far in the series, in Tests and the one-day match, it has been one player producing the runs. We need two or three batsmen to do well. The idea is to keep wickets in hand and attack in the later stage of the innings."
