Kumble out, but Tendulkar returns
Saturday, January 31 2004Leading Indian spinner, Anil Kumble will miss the next two matches in the current VB Series. The legspinner is to be rested due a sore shoulder, in hope that he will be 100% for the upcoming best-of-three finals against Australia. This news comes paired with the return of batsmen Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag.
Tendulkar (ankle) and Sehwag (shoulder) had sustained injuries earlier in the series, but now have reportedly fully recovered. Their return will certainly bolster the batting for the Indian tourists, who play Australia on February 1st at Perth.
