Praveen is in doubt for tomorrow's ODI Cricket match against South Africa due to a hand injury. He turned up with a heavily bandaged bowling arm during the T20 Cricket match at Durban.
He joins an already injury plagued Indian squad that has seen the likes of Virender Sehwag and Gautam Gambhir return home. S. Sreesanth is currently nursing a tennis elbow and is also in doubt for the opening ODI.
According to a report in the Hindustan Times, a team source stated that Praveen forced an old injury during the T20 match on Sunday and he is out of the first ODI. He may want close to two weeks to recover.
India skipper M.S. Dhoni put up a brave face when he was inquired about the injuries that had beleaguered this Indian squad.
"It's better that we miss the key players in the ODI series rather than in the World Cup. Hopefully, we will have a fully fit squad ahead of the big event," he said.
