Indian Cricket Squad announced for the West Indies Tour, Sachin Tendulkar, Zaheer Khan rested

As expected, injuries and fatigue concerns mean India will be four short of their first-choice squad for the four ODIs in the West Indies.

Virender Sehwag with a shoulder injury and Suresh Raina with a hairline fracture on the thumb were not tour, Sachin Tendulkar opted to rest due to a finger injury picked up during the IPL and Zaheer Khan, recovering from his shoulder injury, was given some rest
