T20 World Cup: Pakistan batter Masood a doubt for India showdown after taking blow to the head
Shan Masood is a doubt for Pakistan's opening game of the T20 World Cup against arch-rivals India after taking a blow on the head during training on Friday.
The batter was taken to hospital after he was struck during a practice session at the MCG.
It was revealed by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) that Masood's neurological observations are normal, with the left-hander suffering superficial bruising.
The 33-year-old is asymptomatic but will undergo another concussion test on Saturday.
twitter:1583349500877631488If passed fit, Masood is expected to come in at number three for Pakistan when they take on India in a huge showdown in Melbourne on Sunday.
Fakhar Zaman, a late addition to the squad as a replacement for Usman Qadir, would be the most likely replacement for Masood if he misses out.
Pakistan travel to Perth to face Zimbabwe next Thursday after taking on India.
