fekk you bcci for not monitoring injuries properly' date=' and fekk you ishant for hiding this injury :finger::finger::finger:[/quote'] I don't think he hid it, he had said it already that he had an injury in ankle but the surgery could wait till Australian tour, apparently not.

You just know that in one of the tests the seamers line up is going to be - Pathan Vinay Mithun :fear:
:hysterical: It's sure gonna be. Hope it happens in the 4th Test when we are leading 3-0 :P

Replacement better be Dinda/Irfan. Hope they don't do another blunder by selecting players like Unadkat/Aravind.
Can't be Aravind. He is already injured and is expected to be out of action for at least two weeks.

His ankle will break down even if it is after 2 test or before,Australian grounds have soft outfields and when you run up on soft outfields and land on hard wickets there is more pressure on ankle as said by wasim akram when asked about ishant going to australia with out surgery ,

India in Australia 2011-12 Uncertainty remains over Ishant's fitness The uncertainty around Ishant Sharma's ankle remained as he didn't bowl during India's training session on the eve of their three-day match against the Cricket Australia Chairman's XI. He was present with the team at the Manuka Oval, though. He has been advised two days' rest by a specialist in Canberra, and is almost a non-starter for the tour game that begins on Monday. Ishant bowled only 5.3 overs in India's first tour game, walking off twice during that brief spell. The Indian camp said that day that Ishant was anyway going to bowl only six overs, and when the strapping on the ankle came loose with three deliveries left in the quota he felt no need to come back. Zaheer Khan and Rohit Sharma later said the injury wasn't serious. It has now emerged that Ishant saw a specialist and has been prescribed strengthening exercises and rest. There is a possibility that the Indian team management might ask for a cover, just in case Ishant can't make it for the Boxing Day Test. However, that decision is not expected until late on Sunday or Monday. Ishant had originally hurt the ankle in England. It was earlier suggested that he would need surgery on the ankle, but found out that it healed with physiotherapy at the National Cricket Academy in Bangalore. India have had a horror run with fast bowlers' fitness on overseas tours. New Zealand 2008-09 was the last time they didn't have to deal with an injury to fast bowler. In Sri Lanka 2010, Zaheer was ruled out before the start, and Sreesanth was injured during training on the first day of the tour. Later that year, in South Africa, Zaheer missed the first Test. This year Zaheer got injured on the first day of Test cricket in England, and didn't bowl further in the series. India lost all three first Tests. They managed to come back and level series in Sri Lanka and South Africa, but were whitewashed in England. ŽÂ© ESPN EMEA Ltd.

dunno why everybody is making such a big deal out of it,if Ishant is injured so be it,its not like he was in gr8 form n taking truckload of wickets.pace isnt everything.Aussies r more wary of swing if hes out of tour match,they better name Irfan/Dinda as replacement

Its amazing how some things never change. In England too they kept Zaheer on in England for a long time without asking for a replacement. Having seen what happended there, why cant they fly in someone as cover even if they want to keep Ishant for some more time. The new bowler will get some time to get used to the conditions and the Kukkubura balls.

just send some one there no need to wait for ishant to breakdown preferably dinda but even irfan would do cos he was swinging the ball so if track is green he might come in handy people like mithun are passengers if ishant is injured im hoping that they prepare green tracks otherwise 3rd seamer would get hammered :((
