India medium pacer Manpreet Gony will keep his place in the one-day side for the Asia Cup after Sri Sreesanth was ruled out due to injury.
Sreesanth, who played for Kings XI Punjab in the Indian Premier League, suffered a side strain in their final league match against Rajasthan Royals.
He was replaced by Gony for the recent tri-series against Pakistan and Bangladesh, but has now failed a further fitness test at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore.
Although Gony joined the team just before India's first match against Pakistan in the one-day tournament in Dhaka, he did not play a match and has yet to make his one-day debut.
Pakistan will host the Asia Cup, which will take place from June 24 to July 6 and also includes Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates.
