Injured Ganguly likely to miss warm-up match

Indian team sources says Ganguly hurt his ankle during the practice session and would most probably sit out of the warm-up game.

Sourav Ganguly suffered a mild ankle injury which has made him a doubtful starter for India's final World Cup warm-up cricket match against the West Indies in Montego Bay on Friday.

Indian team sources said Ganguly hurt his ankle during the practice session and would most probably sit out of the game since selectors might not want to risk him before the World Cup, which kicks off on March 13.

The final decision, however, would be taken by the team management, they said.

India will play their opening match against Bangladesh on March 17 at Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad while the tournament will be inaugurated Sunday.
