Sachin Tendulkar has opted out of the Afro-Asian Cup starting on June 6. He will be replaced by Sourav Ganguly in the 14-member squad. Zaheer Khan has also been included in the revised squad, joining Dilhara Fernando and Mashrafe Mortaza as the replacements for Shoaib Akhtar, Chaminda Vaas and Lasith Malinga.
"Following the unavailability of some players named in the original squads on May 11, the selectors have named their final squads for the three ODI matches in Bangalore and Chennai on June 6, 9 and 10 and the Twenty20 match on June 5," a statement clarified.
Sreesanth, who had to opt out of the Bangladesh tour due to injury, makes his return to international cricket after being named as Munaf Patel's replacement in the 11-member Twenty20 team. The Twenty20 match will be played in Bangalore on June 5, and will be followed by three ODIs - on June 6 in Bangalore, and on June 9 and 10 in Chennai.

I would prefer you use the edit button instead of you feeling the need to make 2 or 3 post in a row within a few mintues of each other.
But, you've shown in the last 15 minutes you don't know where that button is. I would use it if I were you.
