Yuvraj Singh gets dengue, to miss ODI

[SachinTheGr8st]

Yuvraj Singh is down with dengue and has been ruled out of Monday's match between India and Sri Lanka in the tri-series at Dambulla. Yuvraj will miss the Monday's ODI. Yuvraj will not be playing due to a mild attack of dengue fever. Doctors said his condition was not serious but he would be out of action for a few days. Yuvraj hasn't been put under isolation. He had been seen at the practice session on Saturday. Yuvraj's absence will hit the Indian team as it's already struggling with injuries to several of its players http://indiatoday.intoday.in/site/Story/109090/Sports/yuvraj-singh-gets-dengue,-to-miss-odi.html

wtf is up with sri lanka... fracked up pitches' date=' fracked up conditions, fracked up all around...[/quote'] Isn't that what touring teams used to say about India? (some probably still do)

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

Good time to have had Irfan or Utappha, i would have thought this would be a blessing but we need UV on form and should have dropped him for this series completely just to give him a kick up the backside in the hope he'd work harder.

[kooljatt]

****kkkkk

[achilles]

Hope things around and only get better for Yuvraj, for he is not only fighting a battle with his fellow teammates to retain his grip in the middle-order, but also with himself.

[Tendulkar_Bhai]

Can we give Jadega dengue for 7 days so Dhoni can see what better options are out there e.g. tiwary/kohli?!?!

[IKnowU]

Replace waterboy with Tiwary. Problem fixed.

[achilles]

^ He found a special mention for the wrong reasons in the A-team tour report, when they toured England.

[TheWall]

Preferebaly it should have been I/Y-Pathan, uthappa (to open) kohli for jaddu, yuvi & injured karthick. But then our selectors!!!!!!

But then our selectors!!!!!![/quote'] If the reported plans of the selectorsto rest India's key players are true, I reckon we'll see Irfan, Yusuf, Robbie, Che & others playing a lot more often for India.

Mystery surrounds Yuvraj's illness Amol Karhadkar, Hindustan Times Dambulla, August 16, 2010 On the eve of India's crucial tie against Sri Lanka, skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni had ruled out Yuvraj Singh since he had "dengue." Minutes after, team manager Ranjib Biswal had said it was "mild dengue and Yuvraj was advised four to five days' rest." In such a backdrop, it was astonishing to see Yuvraj getting off the team bus as the Indian team arrived at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium two hours before the start. Moreover, the prince even went for a stroll on the outfield as the team started its warm-up. If a player is suffering an ailment as serious as dengue fever, shouldn't he be resting at the hotel instead of coming to the stadium? Or was there more to it? In the evening, a Sri Lanka Cricket official informed that the doctor who had examined Yuvraj on Sunday had "suspected" dengue. It was also learnt that Yuvraj's blood samples were collected on Monday and sent to Colombo for analysis. Though it was not clear when the reports will be available to the team, the team management stuck to their stand. "As far as the team is concerned, he has dengue," a management member said in the evening. The 'hole' story When a light drizzle halted play after Tillakaratne Dilshan's dismissal in the first innings, the groundstaff swung into action both on and off the field. While the covers were pulled on the square, a member of the ground staff climbed on the top of the giant scoreboard to replace the Indian Tricolour. While the national flags of Sri Lanka and New Zealand were fluttering incessantly, the tricolour did not move an inch for a while before it was observed that the Indian flag had a hole on it. But the local organisers quickly swung into action and replaced the Indian flag.
