Zaheer returns ODIs against New Zealand
Opener Gautam Gambhir's stint as captain will continue for the entire one-day series against New Zealand after India decided on Thursday to carry on testing their reserve strength ahead of next year's World Cup.

Paceman Zaheer Khan returned to the squad but batsman Suresh Raina and seamer Shanthakumaran Sreesanth will join the other seniors being rested for the remainder of the series which India lead 2-0.

The selectors continued to rest regular captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Virender Sehwag, Sachin Tendulkar and Harbhajan Singh ahead of the three-test series against South Africa which starts on Dec. 16 in Centurion.
