Injury Concerns Hit Team India

And hit them hard.

Good news: Harbhajan will be fit.

Bad News: Sehwag is still uncertain

Ugly News: Yuvraj has definitely been ruled out. At least from the first Test.

To try to put it in perspective imagine what the England team might feel if Trescothick and Pietersen would be ruled out, double the effect and then you will have some idea what a setback it is.

Update: Sehwag has passed the fitness test and will play. Yippie !!
The shoe is on the other foot now. All 3 of England's spinners and their strike bowler, Simon Jones are down with a stomach bug while Paul Collingwood has a back problem. Hmm. This series is taking serious twists and turns even before it has begun.
