The national selectors today sprung a surprise by naming young Gujarat wicketkeeper Parthiv Patel in the England-bound Test squad and ignored pace spearhead Javagal Srinath for the limited overs triangular series beginning from June 27. 

Ace leg spinner Anil Kumble, who had recovered fully from the jaw injury, has also been included in place of Murali Karthik in both the Test and one-day teams announced by Indian cricket board secretary Niranjan Shah here. 

While the selectors have made just one change in the one-day team that did duty in the West Indies with Kumble returning in place of Kartik, the 16-member Test team has also remained more or less unchanged with young Patel replacing wicketkeeper-batsman Deep Dasgupta. 

Javagal Srinath, who recently announced his decision to retire from Test cricket and concentrate on next year’s World Cup, has not been included in the one-day team with the selectors expressing satisfaction with the current bunch of pacemen.
