An ice pack was Virender Sehwag's best friend even several hours after being struck on the ribcage by a net bowler here yesterday. It was a very painful blow, but Sehwag said, "there is no gain without pain.
Anyway, I will play against England." Indian team manager Ranjib Biswal was quoted as saying that a scan was not required, but considering how Sehwag has gone about coping with his injuries, it is no surprise that he hasn't had a scan.
Even when he was hurt on the knee in Bangladesh, he didn't opt for an MRI. "No point in doing it. In any case, I am going to play this World Cup," he said then. He scored 175 in the first WC game.
