Gambhir to miss third Test against Sri Lanka

India will be without the services of Gautam Gambhir for the third Test against Sri Lanka at Mumbai as the left-handed opener will be attending his sister's wedding on December 3.



The Senior Selection Committee on Friday retained the same side for the third Test to be played from December 2-6 but said because of Gambhir's unavailability, the strength of the squad will be 14.





"Gautam Gambhir will not be available for the Test, on account of his sister's wedding on 3 December. The strength of the squad for the Mumbai Test will thus be 14," he added.


Indian Team: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (capt), Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh, Amit Mishra, Zaheer Khan, Ishant Sharma, M Vijay, Pragyan Ojha, S Sreesanth and S Badrinath
