KOLKATA: India's preparation for the coming Bangladesh tour suffered a blow with skipper Rahul Dravid getting hit on the face by a bouncer from R P Singh on the penultimate day of the conditioning camp here on Saturday.
Dravid, who was having batting practice on a grassy centre wicket track, suffered the injury when he tried to hook the delivery and the ball came off his bat and hit the face.
Dravid, who was wearing a helmet, immediately collapsed and the other members of the team rushed to him. Team physio John Gloster gave him treatment for a couple of minutes before the Indian captain left for the dressing room with a towel wrapped on his face.
The extent of the injury was still not clear and so far there has been no word from the team management.
