Having completely recovered from a back injury, seamer
Bhuvneshwar Kumar was today recalled to the 16-member Indian team for
the final three Test matches against England, while veteran opener
Gautam Gambhir was shown the door.
Post recovery, he played a Ranji Trophy match against Mumbai as per team protocol. He took wickets in the match and bowled a total of 36 overs (13 in 1st innings and 23 in the 2nd innings).
For the 35-year-old Gambhir, a veteran of 58 Tests, it could well be the
end of the road as far as his international career is concerned.
