New Delhi: BCCI secretary Anurag Thakur on Monday missed mentioning Ravichandran Ashwin's name in the Test list that was read out while announcing the teams for the final two ODIs and the first two Tests against South Africa that led to confusion regarding the off-spinner's availability.

Ashwin, who suffered a side strain at Green Park in Kanpur, could only bowl 4.4 overs in the opening game and veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh played the next two matches after being selected as back-up in the squad.
