Praveen Kumar ruled out of first ODI against West Indies

The Indian seamer will join the squad tomorrow and is expected to be fit for the second one-dayer in Visakhapatnam, skipper Virender Sehwag said today.

"Praveen Kumar has a niggle so he is not available for first ODI. We expect him to join the squad tomorrow and be fit for the second match," Sehwag told reporters here today.

In the absence of Praveen Kumar, R Vinay Kumar will lead the pace department along with Umesh Yadav and Varun Aaron.
