Yuvraj Singh's Test comeback was again short lived, as the selectors dropped him from the team for the third and final Test against the West Indies, in Mumbai, beginning next week.
The experienced Punjab left-hander made way for Mumbai youngster Rohit Sharma, who himself has battled for consistency since making it to the international stage.
With the all-important tour of Australia coming up next month, the selectors have sent out a loud and clear message that Yuvraj does not fall into their scheme of things as far as Test cricket is concerned.
