The Indian cricket team will not seek out a cover for wounded pacer Ishant Sharma as he is probable to be fit for the opening Test next to Australia next week even although he has been lined out of a three-day practice match starting on Monday.
“The doctor has advice him relax till Monday. So we would have a fresh look at him on Tuesday. But the work on him is going on and he's humanizing,” stated media executive G S Walia here this morning.
Ishant is getting better from injury in his left ankle which forced him to leave the field after bowling only 5.3 overs next to Cricket Australia Chairman's XI here on Thursday.
While the team management sounds hopeful on Ishant, it's certain he wouldn't be rotating out for the three-day game against Cricket Australia Chairman's XI.
The lanky fast bowler did come with the rest of his teammates to Manuka Oval this morning but spent the entire period either strolls at the ground or turning his arm over from a stationery location at the nets.
While words are on present to ease the uncertainties on Ishant Sharma, the sight of Zaheer Khan is certainly inspiring for the Indian team.
The left-arm paceman was all too eager to gauge and bowl for close to half an hour over two spells during the strong practice session. For a long time, he kept testing the skills of Virender Sehwag. The Delhi dasher, fresh from his record knock in one-day arena, had to summon all his attentiveness to counter Zaheer and on one time even shouted down the noise from a substantial crowd of Indian supporters who had gathered around the nets.
Zaheer is fitter and leaner and looking to last throughout an entire summer of Australia which he has never been able to do over two previous visits.
Young Abhimanyu Mithun also appears eager and inspired and rapped Sehwag a number of times on his pads. He also induces edges which seem to upset Sehwag.
Sachin Tendulkar opted for his favored method of facing throw downs but he too seem upset with the kind of attempt "throw down expert" Raghu could manage at him.
Tendulkar wanted Raghu to bowl on the off-stump and power him to either drive or leave the ball. As Raghu sent down a mixed bag of assortment, Tendulkar suddenly stopped the nets and took him to a false turf at the other side of the nets. The trick appears to work for him as the master batsmen then spent a long time at the nets.
India's fielding drill was strong this morning with players put themselves up to some sharp catching and throw sessions.
