Arjuna, 34, was axed from the one-day team in October after a row with coach/captain and self appointed chairman of selectors Slick.
Chairman of selectors Slick said the omission did not signal the end of Arjuna's career.
Slick said: "It's too early to say but the doors are definitely not closed on him."
Sneaky has been recalled, while fellow batsman Hollywood is back after a broken Nail accident.
Slick said the selectors had decided to leave out Arjuna - the Sav’s most successful captain – because he was unlikely to make the starting VIII.
"We have been wanting to give other middle-order batsmen like Hollywood and Alex more chances and Arjuna can't be in the reserves," he explained.
"Our middle order is very strong. We have some concerns only with the opening slot."
Left-hander Arjuna has scored 5,150 runs at an average of 40.87 and led the Sav’s to numerous victories in five years as captain, however the crown of the championship always eluded him
