Fast bowler Javagal Srinath opted out of the camp for the New Zealand tour, the Board for Control of Cricket in India announced in Mumbai on Monday.
The BCCI said the lanky pacer opted out due to an injury for which he is undergoing treatment. When S K Nair was asked about the nature of Srinath's injury he said, "Please ask Srinath."
