Toe injury sidelines Sreesanth for five months

New Delhi: India pacer S Sreesanth has been ruled out of action for five months due to injuries to both his toes that will require two surgeries. “Got to get 2 surgery (on both my toes) will be out of the game for 5 months..hopefully will try to get back soon..Take care..thanks a lot,” Sreesanth tweeted.

Sreesanth, who had preferred ayurvedic treatment instead of going for a surgery in December last, had originally hoped to be fit in time for the CB series in Australia earlier this year. Sreesanth ruling himself out means Rajasthan Royals will have to do without the fast bowler in this Indian Premier League season. PTI
