Yuvraj, who has been dropped from the ongoing third Test against Australia here, hurt his knee before the start of second day's play, making him doubtful for the fourth and final match of the series in Adelaide.

However, a medical exemination of the 26-year-old player at a local hospital cleared him of any serious injury.

The left-hander is likely to start training again in the next couple of days.

Yuvraj has had a nightmarish tour so far, failing in the first two Tests, as well as in the practice game at Canberra before being made to sit out in the ongoing Test.
