Mitchell McClenaghan, the New
Zealand pacer, is set to miss the
remaining matches of the One-Day
International series against Pakistan
after suffering a fracture to his left
eye socket in the first ODI at the Basin
Reserve in Wellington on Monday
(January 25).
The New Zealand fast bowler will need
surgery after being struck by an
Anwar Ali bouncer that went through
the grill of the helmet and hit his eye.
The incident took place in the 50th
over of the first innings and
McClenaghan had to retire on 31.
A New Zealand Cricket (NZC)
spokesman said that the x-ray
revealed a small fracture above the
fast bowler's left eye, as reported by
stuff.co.nz. McClenaghan will undergo
a 'minor cosmetic surgery' in Auckland
on Friday. While the injury is likely to
rule McClenaghan out of the final two
games of the series, he isn't expected
to be sidelined for too long.
