fineleg Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 http://www.espncricinfo.com/india/content/story/800993.html They were great for India for a certain period. Thanks! Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir's prospects of making an India comeback are all but over, as the pair stayed away from selection for the 15-member North Zone squad for the Deodhar Trophy. The team will be led by Harbhajan Singh, and the North Zone selection committee, headed by national selector Vikram Rathour, decided to reward all those who had performed well in the North Zone leg of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. It is believed that Sehwag had told some of the top DDCA officials that he did not want to block the road of promising juniors from Delhi, while the reason for Gambhir opting out is still unclear. "Today, at the start of the selection committee meeting, the chairman Vikram Rathour intimated us that Viru [sehwag] has specifically told him that he doesn't want to play Deodhar Trophy," a member of the North Zone selection committee told PTI. "He has insisted that some of the promising juniors may be picked. Gauti [Gambhir] has also decided against playing but I have no clue about why he pulled out." Squad: Harbhajan Singh (Captain), Unmukt Chand, Manan Vohra, Mandeep Singh, Yuvraj Singh, Milind Kumar, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Rishi Dhawan, Amit Mishra, Parveez Rasool, Mohit Sharma, Sandeep Sharma, Nakul verma (Wk), Taruwar Kohli, Vikas Tokas.
