The 32-year-old left-hander, who was man of the series during India’s triumph at the 2011 World Cup at home, did not figure in the 16-member squad after scoring only one half-century in his last 12 one-day innings and also having little success with the ball.
Yuvraj has been having a turbulent time since the World Cup as he fought off a rare germ cancer to make a comeback last year.
A surprise entry in the one-day squad was 29-year-old allrounder Stuart Binny, the son of former India player Roger Binny, who was a member of the World Cup winning squad of 1983 and is presently a national selector.
In what was the only change to the Test squad that toured South Africa, left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha made way for Pandey.
