According to sources, the Delhi batsman has asked the BCCI to not include him because the December 2-6 Test coincides with his sister's wedding to be held in New Delhi.
It is learnt that Tamil Nadu's Murali Vijay will partner Sehwag in Mumbai.
India are on the verge of victory in Kanpur and if they win, Sri Lanka will have no chance of a series win, something they are chasing on Indian soil since 1986-87. In fact, they have yet to win a Test in India.
Vijay could latch on to the chance and justify his potential.
