Mohammad Shami, Pragyan Ojha included for preparatory camp ahead of South Africa series
Mohammad Shami, who is recuperating after a shoulder surgery, and left-arm spinner, Pragyan Ojha, back with a re-modelled action, are among 30 players named by Board of Control for Cricket in India's (BCCI) senior selection committee for a preparatory camp ahead of the South African team's upcoming tour of India.
Shami was out of the reckoning after the ICC Cricket World Cup following a knee surgery. He also missed India's away series against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. Ojha, having had his re-modelled action cleared by International Cricket Council, came up with a good showing while playing for India 'A' against Australia 'A' and is currently touring Sri Lanka with the Bengal team.
The likes of Gautam Gambhir, Yuvraj Singh, Robin Uthappa and Virender Sehwag were not even considered for the probables list, indicating that they are out of the mix as far as selection to the senior team is concerned. The list comprises 12 specialist batsmen, three wicketkeepers, one fast bowling all-rounder and 14 bowlers, including eight fast and six spinners.
In the case of Shami and Wriddhiman Saha, their fitness will be assessed ahead of the gruelling 72-day series, which includes four Tests, five ODIs and three T20 Internationals.
The camp will be held in Bengaluru from September 21 to 27.
Full squad: Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Murali Vijay, K L Rahul, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma, Stuart Binny, Wriddhiman Saha, Naman Ojha, Ravichandran Ashwin, Amit Mishra, Harbhajan Singh, Ishant Sharma, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron, Karun Nair, Suresh Raina, Mohammed Shami, Axar Patel, Pragyan Ojha, Ravindra Jadeja, Mohit Sharma, Karn Sharma, Ambati Rayudu, Dhawal Kulkarni, Kedar Jadhav, Manish Pandey.

South Africa in India 2015-16 September 20, 2015 India pick Gurkeerat for ODIs, Aravind for T20Is
Uncapped Punjab allrounder Gurkeerat Singh has been included in India's ODI squad for the first three matches against South Africa in October, while uncapped Karnataka seamer S Aravind was picked for the T20 internationals.
The players left out from the full-strength ODI squad that had toured Bangladesh were allrounder Ravindra Jadeja and seamer Dhawal Kulkarni. Gurkeerat, who bowls offspin took Jadeja's spot in the squad while legspinner Amit Mishra came in for Kulkarni.
Gurkeerat, 25, had two impressive outings for India A recently. He had taken 2 for 42 and scored an unbeaten 87 in the tri-series final victory against Australia A in August, and then he made 65 and took 5 for 29 against a Bangladesh A team comprising several international players in the first one-day game in Bangalore.
"Gurkeerat was picked looking at his all-round capabilities," Sandeep Patil, the chairman of selectors, said. "The demands of the game are such that we need more allrounders."
The selectors, who met in Bangalore on Sunday afternoon, said they had not contemplated any change in the captaincy, with MS Dhoni returning to lead the ODI and T20I squads after Virat Kohli had captained India to a Test series win in Sri Lanka. Dhoni had retired from Test cricket during the tour of Australia last year.
"We have not discussed anything regarding the ODI captaincy," Patil said. "We are very happy the way Dhoni has led. We have total backing for Dhoni during this series."
Fast bowler Mohammed Shami was not included in either squad because he is still undergoing rehabilitation for the knee injury he suffered during the tour of Australia in 2014-15. Shami last played for India during the 2015 World Cup and been sidelined from all competitive cricket since.
India did not pick any of their fastest bowlers - Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron or Ishant Sharma - for the T20 internationals, preferring the medium pace offered by Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohit Sharma, Aravind, and Stuart Binny.
"We have picked this side looking at the wickets," Patil said. "We have not lost faith in our [fast] bowlers. There is still a lot of time to go to World Twenty20. We did discuss Ishant Sharma also. Not like we have earmarked him only for Tests."
South Africa arrive in India in the last week of September and play three T20Is, five ODIs and four Tests during a tour that ends on December 7.
ODI squad: MS Dhoni (captain), R Ashwin, Stuart Binny, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Axar Patel, Ajinkya Rahane, Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Mohit Sharma, Rohit Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Gurkeerat Mann, Amit Mishra
T20I squad: MS Dhoni (captain), R Ashwin, Stuart Binny, Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Axar Patel, Ajinkya Rahane, Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Mohit Sharma, Rohit Sharma, S Aravind, Harbhajan Singh, Amit Mishra
