G_B_ Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Pujara was seen initially walking with a slight limp before he choose to lie on a bench adjacent to the nets. As the net session ended, he got up and was seen walking back with his gears into the pavilion. Mohali: Star batsman Cheteshwar Pujara suffered a blow during Indian team's net session at the PCA Stadium ahead of the third cricket Test against Australia starting on Thursday. Architect of India's victory in the second Test in Hyderabad, Pujara was hit on the left knee by a local bowler as he was batting in the nets. The batsman looked in considerable pain as he was forced to leave the nets. After getting medical attention, Pujara had his left-knee strapped and didn't take any further part in the training session. He was seen initially walking with a slight limp before he choose to lie on a bench adjacent to the nets. As the net session ended, he got up and was seen walking back with his gears into the pavilion. As has been the common practice with the Indian team these days, the players warmed up by playing a game of football before starting with their customary net session. Senior batsman Sachin Tendulkar concentrated on playing the spinners mainly and faced a lot of deliveries from Harbhajan Singh and Pragyan Ojha. Shikhar Dhawan and Ajinkya Rahane -- the two players who are waiting for their maiden call-up also enjoyed productive session as they faced the net bowlers for a considerable period of time. Skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni also enjoyed his batting session as Ishant Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja did sent down a number of deliveries. http://sports.ndtv.com/cricket/news/item/204830-setback-for-india-as-cheteshwar-pujara-suffers-knee-injury-during-practice
G_B_ Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 looks like a minor knock. Maybe he took a precaution. Has a day to get over it.
saneindian Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Not good, hope its not the same knee which got injured in the last test.
yoda Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni also enjoyed his batting session as Ishant Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja did sent down a number of deliveries. who wouldn't? :hahaha:

Lord Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 he got to work on his fitess.gets injured too often.also he shouldnt be our short leg
G_B_ Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 @DM its ok, that was a fantastic ball you posted. Dont think many would have been able to defend. Jadeja keeps bowling balls like this then he will be part of the Indian test team in India or the subcontinent for a long time.
yoda Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Oh sorry Dude, I went through special just for the special bowler and you clubbed Sir Sobers with him.
cowboysfan Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Pujara has been very unlucky with his knees,he even get hit wearing pads in practice.
Dumbbells Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 He was out of cricket for many months due to knee injury and he got operated to sort it out. It will be a big blow if this injury shortens his career.
Old guy Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 if its serious then he should rest..i know its a big blow but should not risk that knee again.. a game here and then surgery after that will hurt us much more :((
Old guy Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 he got operated in both the knees yep..thats why i think he should only play at 100 percent
