Don’t want to rule out player like Dhawan: Bangar

Nottingham, June 12 (IANS) India’s assistant coach Sanjay Bangar said the team management does not want to rule out injured opener Shikhar Dhawan just as yet because he is too “precious”.

“We will take at least 10-12 days to take a call on Shikhar’s condition. We don’t want to rule out a precious player like him,” Bangar told media ahead of India’s third World Cup clash against New Zealand.

Dhawan suffered his injury after being hit by a Pat Cummins delivery during his 109-ball 117 knock against Australia. While the X-ray didn’t show any fracture, CT scan revealed otherwise and Dhawan was taken to a specialist for further assessment.

Pant, who was initially ignored for Dinesh Karthik when the 15-member squad was picked, has been named as his standby and is expected to fly in to England as cover.

India have won their first two matches against South Africa and Australia respectively. India will next face New Zealand at Trent Bridge on Thursday
