Giving the reason of fatigue the BCCI might rest Indian senior players including Captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Vice-Captain Virat Kohli and spinner R Ashwin.
Rohit Sharma and Suresh Raina are the two players in running for captaincy. Rohit is the top contender after successfully leading Mumbai Indians to the IPL title this season.
In case Ashwin is rested, either Parveez Rasool or Harbhajan Singh will be likely called to fill the off-spiner spot.
In Virat Kohli's absence Robin Uthappa can also make the cut.
Some of the certainties are Stuart Binny, Ambati Rayudu and Mohit Sharma.
Pacer Umesh Yadav might get some much needed rest after injury free last six months.
