Wriddhiman Saha on Afghanistan Test: Doctor will decide if I'm fit after X-Ray

Wriddhiman Saha

India Test wicketkeeper Wriddhiman Saha yesterday made it all but clear that he is out of India's Afghanistan Test match owing to a thumb injury.

While BCCI has maintained as a thumb injury, reliable sources have confirmed that it's a thumb fracture sustained as Saha tried to fend a rising delivery from Shivam Mavi during an T20 qualifier between Hyderabad and Kolkata.

A final call will be taken by the BCCI medical team in Mumbai after assessing the X-Ray report. "It's not in my hands. Personally, I feel I might not be fit in time," a disappointed Saha told reporters.

"A Mumbai-based doctor who is in touch with me will take a call after examining the X-Ray in a few days," the Indian Test wicketkeeper said.
