SRT injured again

India batsman Sachin Tendulkar could miss the four-test series against Australia starting in Bangalore on Oct. 9 after injury ruled him out of a premier domestic competition match next week.
Tendulkar suffered an elbow injury during the third test in Sri Lanka last month which forced him out of the subsequent one-day series.

He had declared himself available for the Irani Trophy match, seen as a selection game for the Australia series, but the physiotherapist at the National Cricket Academy advised him another week's rest to recuperate.

"He is not playing the Irani Trophy as he has been advised a week of rehabilitation," Ratnakar Shetty, the board's chief administrative officer, told reporters on Saturday.

Tendulkar missed the first two tests of Australia's last tour four years ago due to tennis elbow.

So he's as big a wanker as Smith.

That observation ought to get the Indians going .... again !

Red proves she hates Indians as well as saffies

Jebus, look for mass suicides around Mumbai.

But he's still ok to drive his Ferrari, right?

He's ambidextrous, Nath. 98, 99, 100, change hands.

But not to pay the tax

Surely the end is nigh for the little master?

I always thought you didn't suffer a recurrence of tennis elbow. Alas the end does appear nigh for Sachin.

Maybe its the other elbow.

It's sad that it is clear he is being "made" to play on to break BCL's record.

So what's the latest? Is SRT likely to be out for all 4 Tests?

I heard a bloke from the BCCI say yesterday that he would definitely play.

Same has been said atleast a dozen times during his career.

And he is least qualified to say so.
