India in Sri Lanka

Shikhar Dhawan Ruled out of Sri Lanka Tour

Colombo: Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan has been ruled out of the Test series against Sri Lanka following a hairline fracture on his right thumb.

He was hurt in the first over of the Test match against Sri Lanka at Galle. It was when he was attempting a catch of Kaushal Silva but dropped a sitter. Though that did not hamper him from scoring a brilliant 134.

He did not take the field for the team though but came out to bat when India were chasing a score of 176 but India lost the game by 63 runs. This also means that Murali Vijay might replace Shikhar Dhawan in the side and the ploy of playing five bowlers might be put to rest for sometime.
