The number of wounded players ruled out of the Indian World Cup team rose to two with Vijay Shankar being the latest casualty. Following Shikhar Dhawan's thumb injury that forced him out of the World Cup, 'three-dimensional player' Shankar will miss the rest of India's campaign in the World Cup after sustaining a "non displaced fracture of the left big toe". The injury rules him out of the ongoing World Cup," it added. Of course, Shankar did a mark with the ball, picking up a wicket off his very first delivery in the World Cup, against Pakistan. Perhaps, Rayudu's tweet a day after his omission from the World Cup squad – "Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup," with a couple of emoticons – did not go well with the BCCI.
