Sehwag to consult doctor over rib injury

Big-hitting Indian opener Virender Sehwag is seeing a doctor in New Delhi after being struck in the ribs during a net session last week, a report said on Tuesday.

"He is going to see a personal physician and is expected on Wednesday," Ranjib Biswal, the India team manager, told a national daily.

"There is no major concern as such, but it seems he doesn't want to take a chance."

Sehwag is also carrying a shoulder problem that has prevented him from bowling, the report said. Biswal said he had a "niggle in his shoulder."

Sehwag, who hammered 175 in India's opening win over Bangladesh, was struck by a delivery from a net bowler on Friday before India's dramatic tie with England on Sunday, in which he scored 35.
