A top BCCI source said that it is possible that at least five-six senior players may be rested since India have a hectic international schedule ahead.
While some senior players may skip only the ODI series, others who have injury problems in recent times may opt out of the entire tour of the West Indies where they play one Twenty20 International, five ODIs and three Tests during the tour starting June 4.
Opening batsman Virender Sehwag is likely to miss the entire tour of the West Indies to regain full fitness, while other senior players like Dhoni, Sachin Tendulkar, Gautam Gambhir, Zaheer Khan and Harbhajan Singh may be rested in a phased manner.
It is learnt that some senior players have already written to the BCCI expressing their desire to skip the tour of the West Indies so that they are fit enough for the crucial tours of England and Australia later in the year. link

Well we won't be playing the "seniors" like SHIV AND SARS either so i guess we think India are a minnow too right?
BTW India's record in the caribbean is CRAP!!.. one could argue that they have given up before it's even started to rhatid!!.. they know it's the usual licks they'll be getting when dem come to town!!
