July 29, 2011 - PRLog -- For the second test of India to be played against England at Trent Bridge, fast bowler, Zaheer Khan will not play due to hamstring injury, as announced by skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.for more information, you can log on to http://www.2011cricketworldcuptickets.com

During the first test played in Lord’s, Zaheer Khan broke down, where India got defeated by 196 runs. He took two wickets for 18 runs in the first 13.3 overs of first innings.

Zaheer’s place might get replaced by S Sreesanth or Munaf Patel. While addressing reporters at Trent Bridge before the beginning of second test, Dhoni said, “I think he is ruled out of this game. It's always good to have him in the side because he is our most experienced bowler, especially when it comes to England, he has played a lot of cricket over here for counties and the last time India were here (in 2007) he bowled really well. It's a bit disappointing not to have him for selection in the first XI but it is something that is beyond our control and it gives a chance to the other bowlers to prove their mettle when it comes to international cricket.”

Skipper further added, “Overall it's a win-win situation for the Indian team because we can't really sit and say Zaheer is not there. We have to look at the positive, which is some of the other bowlers will get to have a look at international cricket.”

Presence of opening batsman Gautam Gambhir is also doubtful due to elbow injury. Dhoni commented regarding Gambhir, “We'll give him some time, and see how he goes through the net sessions today (Thursday).”for more information, you can log on to http://www.2011cricketworldcuptickets.com

He further added, “He's the only person who can judge the right amount of pain he can go through and still be able to perform.”
