Kieron Pollard set to miss another couple of games for Mumbai Indians – Cricket News Update
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/KA-Pollard-c1754 will not be able to take part in the fifth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) for another week.
Pollard has been doing pretty well in the current season with both bat and ball. However, the all-rounder injured his right shoulder while attempting a catch against http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Delhi-c780 Daredevils last week.
He missed the match against Deccan and is likely to remain out of the league for another week, as per the left-arm spinner from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757.
"According to the medical reports and scans done, Pollard would be out for at least another week," said Peterson.
The Indians will take on Pune http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Warriors-c861 today in a crucial match of the tournament as both the teams are in need of two important points.
Mumbai has struggled this year with injuries as Sri Lankan ace; http://www.senore.com/Cricket/SL-Malinga-c2540 also missed out on a couple of matches because of a sore back. However, the fast bowler is back and doing well for the franchise.
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/HH-Gibbs-c1549.
The right-handed batsman is one of the most destructive batsmen of the modern era but he injured his finger during practice, earlier in the tournament. The injury has so far kept him out of the tournament.
Peterson expressed that Gibbs is a match-winner when it comes to the shorter format of the game and his team has been quite unfortunate to have missed his services because of injury. The left-arm spinner further added that http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Gibbs-c60021 will probably be ready to
play if the management decides to include him in the playing eleven for the upcoming encounters.
“Gibbs broke his finger in the first week, which was unfortunate. He is just starting to hit a few balls. We all know Gibbs' ability in the T20 format, and if the team management chooses him in one of the coming games, I am sure he would be ready," he added.
