Tiwary to take second opinion

Manoj Tiwary would fly back to Kolkata instead of heading for the operation table straightaway, reports Rachna Shetty.

The recovery tale of Manoj Tiwary from his shoulder injury took a twist on Saturday when the Bengal youngster decided to take a second opinion after BCCI’s medical advisor Dr Anant Joshi recommended surgery.

Tiwary had flown in from Kolkata on Friday and met Dr Joshi. The BCCI said in a release that following an MRI scan, which revealed a tear of his right ‘antero inferior labrum’, Dr Joshi would perform an arthroscopic surgery in Mumbai on Monday.

However, late in the evening, BCCI’s Chief Administrative Officer, Ratnakar Shetty, said Tiwary would fly back to Kolkata instead of heading for the operation table straightaway.
