Indian speedster Zaheer Khan and reserve opener Murali Vijay had an extended net session at the Brabourne Stadium.

The duo, under the watchful eyes of coach Gary Kirsten, spent nearly two hours at the nets at the CCI on Sunday ahead of India's third Test against Sri Lanka starting on December 2.

Vijay, not selected for the first two Tests in the ongoing series against Lanka, is likely to replace opener Gautam Gambir in the squad for the third Test, after the latter opted out due to his sister's upcoming wedding.

Meanwhile, the visitors preferred to have a day off.

India is leading the three Test series 1-0, after defeating the visitors by an innings and 144 runs in the second Test at Kanpur. The Ahmedabad Test ended in a draw.
