Team India is hit by injury blues on the eve of their opening match of the four-match
ODI series against Sri Lanka.
Ajit Agarkar, Irfan Pathan and Yuvraj Singh
are uncertain for tomorrow's match.
The Indian skipper Rahul Dravid told reporters during
the practice session that in view of the injuries, the final 12 would be announced
tomorrow morning.
"Agarkar has fallen sick, he has flu and he has not been
able to practice after the Ranji Trophy final match," he said, adding
"Pathan has a sore shoulder and he could also not bowl here during practice
session yesterday and today."
Asked about Yuvraj, he said that he was also suffering from
a stiff back problem and could not participate in practice session today.
To a query about the final composition of the Indian team for tomorrow's outing,
he said, "I will love to announce the 12 for the match, but we could not
do it now and probably we will wait till tomorrow morning."
