New Delhi: The selection committee led by MSK Prasad will select Team India today for the West Indies tour. India's West Indies tour will begin on August 3. India have to play three T20 Internationals, three ODIs and two Test matches. The 38-year-old Dhoni has informed the BCCI that he will be unavailable for any kind of cricket for two months now. Dhoni is going to serve in the Pera Military Regiment for the next 2 months. This makes it clear that Dhoni will not go on a tour of the West Indies with Team India.

The most discussed in the selection committee will be on who will be the wicketkeeper batsman in place of Dhoni on the West Indies tour.  There were earlier reports that captain Virat Kohli could also rest in limited overs, but Kohli has made it clear that he will be available for selection. Ms Dhoni, who is facing a lot of speculation after the World Cup, has decided to stay away from cricket for two months.
