Nagpur: In a big blow to Indian hopes, all-rounder Yuvraj Singh has been ruled out of the Friday's Nagpur one-dayer.
Yuvraj is down with flu and is also yet to recover from the finger injury he had suffered before the first one-dayer.
Virender Sehwag, though, has been declared fit to play in the Napur ODI. Sehwag has recovered from his ankle injury and was declared fit after a fitness test.
Sri Lanka, too, have their own set of fitness worries to deal with, with off-spinner Muttiah Muralitharan and pacer Dilhara Fernando ruled out of the ongoing series due to finger injuries.
The visitors have brought in two new off-spinners, Muthumudalige Pushpakumara and Suraj Randiv in the squad to make up for Muralitharan's absence.
