Ganguly's injury minor, confirms report
KOLKATA: The chances of Indian captain
Sourav Ganguly playing the third and final Test against Pakistan
brightened today with the medical reports confirming that his back
injury was not serious. Specialist Orthopeadic Dr Kalyan Mukherjee,
who advised the medical test yesterday, said "Sourav's medical
reports confirmed that the injury is not serious."
Ganguly had undergone MRI scan, digital X-ray and blood test at Eko
X-ray Centre here yesterday to assess the nature and extent of his
injury.
"The reports confirmed that my diagnosis was correct and there is no
bone injury but only the ligament has been affected," Mukherjee
said. Ganguly has been advised normal rest at his residence and
asked to do swimming and some exercises.
The left hander flew in here on Thursday evening for treatment after
watching India's historic win in the first Test at Multan.
Ganguly missed the first Test after injuring his back while fielding
during the fifth and final one-day match at Lahore on March 24.
