Side strain cuts short Mark Craig's India campaign
Mark Craig, the New Zealand cricket
team off-spinner, has been ruled out
of the remainder of the Test series
against India because of a side strain.
Jeetan Patel has been called up to the
squad as the replacement.
Craig picked up a left side strain while
bowling in the second innings of the
ongoing first Test in Kanpur. The
spinner did not return to bowl after
leaving the field for further treatment.
However, he will be available to bat for
New Zealand should they require his services.
According to coach Mike Hesson, Craig
is expected to take at least four weeks
to completely recover from his injury.
The 29-year-old, whose India
campaign ended with a wicket in each
innings of the opening Test, will return
to New Zealand and begin his
rehabilitation programme. Read More: www.cricbuzz.com/cricket-news/82845

India vs New Zealand, 2nd Test: Kapil Dev to ring bell at Eden Gardens
Former captain Kapil Dev will do the honours of ringing the Lord's-like Eden Gardens bell for the first time to signal the start of the second cricket Test between India and New Zealand here on Friday.
Confirming this Cricket Association of Bengal joint secretary Avishek Dalmiya said, "This was (president) Sourav Ganguly's idea and Kapil has agreed to ring the bell on the morning of the Test."
The ringing of the five-minute bell at Lord's by an international cricketer, administrator or a well-known enthusiast of the sport is a recent tradition introduced in 2007.
The Sourav Ganguly-led CAB has followed suit and decided to have their own before the upcoming Test.
The silver-coated giant bell will be hung near the Eden clock and will be installed in the next couple of days, Avishek said.
The bell will be rung by different personalities every morning during the five days to signal the start of play.
The BCCI meanwhile has written to the CAB confirming that the Eden Test would be India's 250th on home soil, and Board president Anurag Thakur has confirmed to felicitate both the teams with specially minted silver coins each weighing 100 grams.
"The Board president will arrive on October 1 and the next day, on day three of the match we will have the felicitation to mark the 250th landmark Test," Avishek said.
The CAB has also arranged a special gold coin for the toss.
Both the teams are slated to arrive tomorrow evening.
India have taken a 1-0 lead over New Zealand in the three-match series with a 197-run win in the first Test in Kanpur on Monday.

Ind v NZ, 2nd Test, Kolkata: India to reclaim ICC Test top spot if it wins at Eden
India will reclaim the ICC Test Rankings top spot from Pakistan if it wins the second Test against New Zealand starting on Friday in Kolkata.
The victory in its 500th Test in Kanpur meant that India is now one victory away from reclaiming the ICC Test Championship mace from Pakistan. India had entered the three-match series against the Kiwis, trailing Pakistan by one point and needed to win the series to move ahead of its traditional rival.
Off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin , who was the star of the Kanpur win, also climbed one place to occupy second position in the ICC Test Rankings among bowlers.
Ashwin's match haul of 10-225, that helped India notch up a 197-run victory in the first Test against New Zealand in Kanpur on Monday has seen him overtake England's James Anderson by one point. He is now within seven points of number-one ranked Dale Steyn of South Africa, who leads the ICC Player Rankings for Test Bowlers with 878 points.
Another strong performance in the
Kolkata Test , which starts on Friday, will potentially see Ashwin top the bowling charts for the second time this year after first claiming the number-one position last year following the Boxing Day Tests.
New Zealand captain Kane Williamson also climbed up one place each to occupy second position among batsmen. Williamson has edged England's Joe Root by one point with innings of 75 and 25 to reach 879 points. Australia captain Steve Smith leads the rankings with 906 points.
However, to move ahead or edge even closer to Smith, Williamson will have to produce strong performances in the remaining two Tests.
Ashwin also contributed with a useful innings of 40 to consolidate his position at the top of the list of all-rounders. Ashwin has reached a career-best rating of 450, opening up a 66-point gap with second-placed Shakib Al Hasan of Bangladesh.
There was not much to cheer for other New Zealand batsmen apart from Williamson, but for India, opener Murali Vijay and Cheteshwar Pujara made significant gains.
Vijay and Pujara, who became the first Indian pair in 10 years to notch century partnerships in both innings of a Test match, moved up from joint-20th position to joint-16th position.
Other Indian batsmen to move up were Lokesh Rahul, who gained five ranks to reach 57th position, and Rohit Sharma, who gained two slots to reach 52nd rank.
