Vadodara:<\/strong> Indian skipper, Mahendra Singh Dhoni took a blow on his left knee on Friday while batting in the nets against paceman Munaf Patel.<\/p>\n

The incident that took place during Team India\u2019s extensive practice session at the Reliance Stadium, rendered Dhoni unable to continue with the training and had to leave the session mid-way.<\/p>\n

Though the blow was a pretty hard one and Dhoni was seen with a protective gear on the damaged knee, he is hopeful to be fit for the Sunday\u2019s match against Australia.<\/p>\n

“I got hit while batting against Munaf. I should be alright by tomorrow (Saturday), but have to wait and see how it feels in the morning,” the Indian captain said.<\/p>\n

If his injury turns out to be a serious one, India will be in for a huge trouble, as there is no reserve wicket-keeper in the Indian squad for the first two ODIs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
