MUMBAI (Reuters) - Selectors pitched for youth for next month's tour of Bangladesh, resting batsmen Sachin Tendulkar and Saurav Ganguly from the one-day team and ousting three others following the side's World Cup failure.

India, who suffered a shock exit from the first stage of the World Cup, play a three-match one-day series followed by two tests from May 10.

Tendulkar and Ganguly retained their test places.

Out-of-form batsman Virender Sehwag made the one-day team but was dropped from the test side.

Off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, left-arm seamer Irfan Pathan and pacer Ajit Agarkar, all part of the World Cup disappointment, were dropped from both teams.

Bengal batsman Manoj Tiwary, 21, is the lone new face in the one-day team while 18-year-old leg spinner Piyush Chawla, who has played one test, has been drafted into the one-day team following Anil Kumble's retirement. A clutch of younger players have been recalled.

The only debutant in the test team was Baroda left-arm spinner Rajesh Pawar.

Team for one-day internatonals: Rahul Dravid (captain), Gautam Gambhir, Robin Uthappa, Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh, Mahendra Dhoni, Dinesh Karthik, Manoj Tiwary, Shanthakumaran Sreesanth, Munaf Patel, Zaheer Khan, Rudra Pratap Singh, Piyush Chawla, Ramesh Powar and Dinesh Mongia.

Team for tests: Rahul Dravid (captain), Wasim Jaffer, Sachin Tendulkar, Vangipurappu Laxman, Mahendra Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly, Yuvraj Singh, Dinesh Karthik, Shanthakumaran Sreesanth, Zaheer Khan, Vikram Rajvir Singh, Munaf Patel, Anil Kumble, Ramesh Powar and Rajesh Pawar.
