Rohit Sharma replaced Yuvraj Singh in 3rd Test against WestIndies 2011


India chose to retain a largely unchanged 15 man squad for the third Test against the West Indies with the only change being Rohit Sharma replacing the out-of-form Yuvraj Singh. 

Yuvraj has struggled for form in the ongoing series aggregating 66 runs in 3 innings at an average of 22. His highest score was 25. The left hander's last hundred came a long time ago, when India hosted Pakistan in 2007. Since then Yuvraj has played in 17 Tests with a highest of 86 against England. 

Rohit Sharma has been in superb form in the Ranji tournament scoring back to back hundreds against Rajastan and Railways. 

India have already wrapped up the series after registering 2 thumping wins in the first 2 Tests. 

Team: M S Dhoni (capt & wk), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, V V S Laxman, Rohit Sharma, Ishant Sharma, R Ashwin, Pragyan Ojha, Umesh Yadav, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, Rahul Sharma, Varun Aaron.
