Ganguly out of
2nd ODI with a hamstring injury |
Sourav
Ganguly will be sitting out of the 2nd One Day
International at Kochi after injuring his
hamstring at Bangalore. Although Ganguly's
injury isn't all that bad, he will be rested as
a precautionary measure.
Ganguly had been injured
while fielding in the first ODI at Bangalore
which was abandoned. He hardly had anything to
do in the match as his injury came in the early
part of the Australian innings which saw him get
replaced with Dinesh Karthik on the field in the
27th over. Ganguly may be replaced with Robin
Uthappa for the next ODI which is a day match at
Kochi tomorrow.
The Indians are likely
to rope in another change to their line-up with
Harbhajan Singh expected to play instead of
Ramesh Powar. Powar was taken for 50 runs in his
6 overs. There was lot of speculation as to why
Powar was played ahead of Harbhajan but the
reason could be that the latter had a stiff neck
on the day of the first ODI.
