India have named an unchanged 15-man squad for the second Test against the West Indies, which gets underway at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on 14th November.

India came from behind to secure an impressive five-wicket win in the opening game in Delhi with VVS Laxman and Sachin Tendulkar batting impressively on the final day.

Tendulkar scored his 15,000th Test run during the course of the match and is pursuing his one hundredth international century as India look to seal the three-match series at the earliest attempt.

India Test squad: Mahendra Singh Dhoni (captain), Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Laxman, Yuvraj Singh, Ishant Sharma, Ravichandran Ashwin, Pragyan Ojha, Umesh Yadav, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane, Rahul Sharma, Varun Aaron.
