Injured Yuvi out of last two ODIs

Yuvraj Singh was on Tuesday sidelined for the remaining two one-dayers of the ongoing one-day series against Sri Lanka, following a recurrence of his finger injury. It’s a big blow for India, ahead of the fourth ODI here at the Eden Gardens on Thursday, who are already without the services of regular skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni.

Karthik should have let Sachin get ton: Experts

It is not often that a player draws flak for scoring the winning runs but India’s wicketkeeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik clearly has not made himself popular by leaving Sachin Tendulkar stranded just four runs short of a century in the third ODI against Sri Lanka.

India won the third one-dayer comfortably in Cuttack last night but an over-zealous Karthik finds himself at the centre of a debate on whether he should have allowed his senior partner Tendulkar to complete what could have been his 46th ODI century.
