Tendulkar played despite injury

Sachin Tendulkar would have missed the Champions Trophy had it been held in Pakistan on time.

Indian doctor Amod Harip, who first examined the master batsman for his latest elbow injury in Colombo’s Apollo Hospital, said: “Sachin was brought to me after getting injured while fielding during the third Test between Sri Lanka and India. He has hemarthrosis of elbow (right hand).”
