India have dropped top order batter Cheteshwar Pujara for the upcoming two-test tour of West Indies in July while Ruturaj Gaikwad and Yashasvi Jaiswal made the cut after stellar campaigns in the Indian Premier League .
His absence leaves a spot vacant for the likes of Gaikwad or Jaiswal to step into should Shubman Gill continue to open the batting. Gaikwad also made headlines in November when he hammered seven sixes in an over in a first class match for his team Maharashtra. The Caribbean tour commences with the first test from July 12-16 in Dominica. The second test will be played in Trinidad from July 20-24.
