Boucher injured

Nagpur: Mark Boucher’s further participation in the ongoing first Test against India is doubtful due to a back sprain but the team management is confident that the South African stumper will be fit for the second Test in Kolkata.

Boucher left the field towards the latter part of the Indian first innings and A.B. de Villiers did duty with the gloves.

However, scans taken later in a local clinic indicated that it’s only a strain and he should be available for the second Test starting in Kolkata on February 14.

“CT scan and MRI scan have given him a clean bill of health. It’s a lower back sprain and he will continue ongoing treatment from the physio,” Cricket South Africa’s Media Officer Michael Owen-Smith said.

“I’m not putting a time frame when he will be back on field, but we are confident he will be ready for the Kolkata Test afterwards,” he added. — PTI
