Sree Santh returns after injury, while fellow seamer Ishant Sharma is included after impressing in the Test series.

Ganguly has been in good form recently, but has been overlooked in favour of Raina, who has scored heavily this season for his state team Uttar Pradesh.
Dravid, who like Ganguly is 35, missed the home series against Australia and Pakistan earlier this season because of poor form.
Left-arm spinner Murali Kartik makes way for Chawla despite performing well against the Aussies on home soil.
India trail Australia 2-1 in the Test series after winning in Perth on Saturday.
After the final match in Adelaide, which starts on Thursday, they face the Aussies in a Twenty20 international in Melbourne two days before taking them on in the opening CB Series game in Melbourne.
The tourists will then play against Sri Lanka, also at the Gabba, on 5 February.
Each team will feature in eight games before a best-of-three final between the top two.
Irate fans of Sourav Ganguly [Images] burnt an effigy of BCCI president Sharad Pawar [Images] as protests erupted in the metropolis over the former skipper being sacked from the national squad for the forthcoming triangular series in Australia.
Incensed at Ganguly being kept out of the team, around 40 cricket buffs gathered near his residence in Behala and raised slogans against the selectors and Pawar.
They set fire to an effigy of Pawar and beat it with shoes and chappals.

"Bring dada back", demanded the fans, holding posters and banners.
The Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) described Ganguly's sacking as "grave injustice" and said it would lodge a strong protest to BCCI.
