Gautam Gambhir's contribution in the ODI series against England looks likely with the Indian opener expected to fit for the five ODI matches. Team manager Shivlal Yadav confirmed this on Wednesday. Yadav said Gambhir should be fine for next month's ODI series after his MRI scan did not show everything untoward.
He, however, said that the left-hander might not play in the practice game against Sussex on Thursday. Gambhir is critical to India's plans in the ODIs now that his fellow opener Virender Sehwag has been entirely ruled out for the five one-dayers and one-off Twenty20 match. Gambhir suffered the concussion after he backpedalled at mid-on in a bid to catch a miscued pull off Kevin Pietersen during the Oval Test.
The chance was fluffed when he fell back and hit his head on the ground with a thud. Even though assumption over his availability has died down after the MRI scan, the left-hander did not come out to practice with his colleagues today. The current series has been one of trouble for Gambhir.
