Rahul Dravid [Images] has been named captain for the last two one-dayers against Pakistan in place of Sourav Ganguly [Images], who was banned for six limited-overs matches because of slow over-rate during the fourth One-Day International in Ahmedabad on Tuesday.

The Board of Control Cricket in India, which announced a 15-member squad for the last two matches, gave Ganguly's place in the side to Tamil Nadu's S Sriram while Anil Kumble [Images] was named in place of Irfan Pathan [Images].

Leg-spinner Kumble missed the first two one-dayers due to injury while he was not considered for selection for the next two matches.

Virender Sehwag [Images] has been named as Dravid's deputy for the remaining matches of the series, to be held in Kanpur on Friday and Delhi on Sunday.

The team: Rahul Dravid (captain), Sachin Tendulkar [Images], Virender Sehwag, M S Dhoni [Images], Yuvraj Singh [Images], Mohammed Kaif, Dinesh Mongia, S Sriram, Anil Kumble, Harbhajan Singh [Images], Murali Karthik, Ashish Nehra, L Balaji, Zaheer Khan [Images], Ajit Agarkar [Images].
