Mongia ruled out for Chennai Test
16 March 2001

Wicket-keeper Nayan Mongia, who was hit on his nose on the last day of the Kolkata Test yesterday, has been ruled out for the third and final Test against Australia starting in Chennai on Sunday and Mumbai captain Samir Dighe will replace him.

Indian manager Chetan Chauhan told reporters after net practice here that "Dighe is being contacted to reach here tonight."

Mongia was injured by a Harbhajan Singh delivery and needed a couple of stitches on his nose. Though he came back and kept wickets, there was some swelling on his nose and an X-Ray was to be done today.

Mumbai Cricket Association joint secretary Mayank Khandwala told PTI in Mumbai that Dighe would fly to Chennai this evening after captain Saurav Ganguly called up to say that the wicket-keeper batsman be rushed to join the team.
