The crushing batsman Sehwag has still not recovered from his shoulder injury which he sustained during the IPL this season. On the other hand, Ishant is suffering from a continual ligament injury to his left ankle that he got during the Test match at Edgbaston.

A BCCI release stated, "Although his condition has improved, he continues to experience headaches. An ENT specialist, who was consulted on the same, has said that he will take two more weeks to recover completely."
