Yuvraj May Miss Indore Match

Yuvraj May Miss Indore MatchYuvraj Singh, suffering from acute back pain may have sit back for the second one-day match against England. This left hand batsman on Monday had lead the Indian side to a glorious victory. Yuvraj complained of back stress during Friday’s first limited-overs international and had to use a runner. He scored an unbeaten 138 that helped India clinch a 158-run victory in the first match. But India skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni has said that Yuvraj is improving. But Dhoni however was not ready to say whether he will bat for the second one-dayer at the central Indian city of Indore. According to Dhoni, the decision will be taken only by Monday morning.

“There’s considerable improvement in Yuvraj’s condition, but we’ll take a final call on him just before the start of play,” said Dhoni at Indore to the reporters on Sunday.

Indian captain has said that Indian side will come to the field without pace spearhead Ishant Sharma. Sharma has also missed the opening limited-overs international in Rajkot. He is suffering from an ankle sprain that got him during the final test match against Australia.

Ishant Sharma was named player of the four-test series against Australia, in which India made a magnificent victory of 2-0. This series win has boosted the confidence of the Indian side. According to Dhoni, Ishant is virtually out of this match. Dhoni wants his players to guard against complacency after making a big win in the first match. He feels that England is a small team and should not be taken lightly.

Dhoni added that Indian team is always wary of becoming complacent. He said that ,” the current England bowling attack is superior to the one that visited India two years ago.

During the last English visit to India in 2006, the Test series had ended in a 1-1 draw, but Indian had posted a series win in the limited-overs internationals by 5-1.

“England’s a good side. It has a very good attack and we’re not taking it lightly,” Dhoni said.

No Pressure on Me: Dhoni

No Pressure on Me: DhoniAfter taking over the captaincy, is MS Dhoni under pressure? If his words are to be taken, he says is not under any pressure from any quarter. Dhoni has taken up the captaincy from Anil Kumble yesterday. He will lead India in the fourth and last Test against Australia at Nagpur starting on Thursday.
Dhoni brushed aide the comment by Australian captain Ricky Ponting that his side will be distracted by Sourav Ganguly’s last international match, V.V.S Laxman’s 100th Test and the absence of Gautam Gambhir. Dhoni feels that it is a matter of pride for him to be a part of

V.V.S. Laxman’s 100th Test. ‘We just need to focus on the things we need to do. We have prepared well and executed the plans well in the series,’ said Dhoni.

To a question about the pressure of leading the side on the crucial match, Dhoni said that there is no difference whether you are leading the team for one match or for the full series. The responsibility will be all the same. Dhoni adds that the pressure will mount if a player is not in good rhythm. But now everything is going on well. All the players have contributed by taking wickets and putting on runs on board making things easier.

Definitely this player from Ranchi is missing Gambhir’s absence. Gambhir will have to sit outside after the International Cricket Council appeals commissioner upheld a one-Test ban imposed on him by Match Referee Chris Broad.

Gambhir is in good form having scored loads of runs. His sitting outside is no doubt a big loss, adds Dhoni. But he is confident of Tamil Nadu opener Murali Vijay who will make his debut at Nagpur. To a question, if Dravid will be made to open the innings, Dhoni said that the current decision is to make Murali open, but may be the things can change later. Dravid is under medication for flue and will be fit for the match on Thursday.
