NEW DELHI, May 20: India has recalled offspinner Harbhajan Singh for a one-off test against Bangladesh, on a tour which will also feature three one-day internationals.

The 34-year-old Harbhajan, who last played in a home test series against Australia in March 2013, was picked on Wednesday in the Virat Kohli-led side despite limited success in first-class cricket this past season.

Harbhajan, who has 413 wickets from 101 tests, finds himself in the team along with regular test offspinner Ravichandran Ashwin.




Mahendra Singh Dhoni, who has retired from test cricket, will lead the ODI squad.
