Indian captain MS Dhoni has been declared fit to play the second Test against Sri Lanka in Kanpur starting tomorrow. Dhoni hurt his finger during the Ahmedabad Test which ended in a dull draw last Friday and the team management rushed wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik to the city as a last minute back-up. Karthik will now return to Dharamshala to join his Tamil Nadu team-mates for the Ranji Trophy match against Himachal Pradesh, also starting tomorrow.
Dhoni had arrived at Green Park on Sunday without any taped fingers nor did he seem in any sort of pain. He batted his full quota during training, hit powerful, flat-bat strokes, and enthusiastically bowled seam-up immediately after removing his batting pads.
