(Reuters) - Demba Ba was again left out of Senegal's 23-man World Cup squad on Thursday for next week's qualifier against Uganda as coach Alain Giresse continued to pick only players who regularly feature for their clubs.

Striker Ba has struggled to win a regular place in Chelsea's team since joining the Londoners from Newcastle United in January.
