Kambli, M S K Prasad in team

Two new faces figure in the Indian cricket team for the tours of Sri Lanka and Singapore later this month.

The selection committee of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, which met in Baroda this morning, announced that dashing Bombay batsman Vinod Kambli will replace former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin, who had opted out of contention, while M S K Prasad will keep wickets for Nayan Mongia, who also told the board not to consider him for selection as he had not yet recovered from the shoulder injury he suffered during the World Cup in England.
