Gloster declares Munaf fit for third Test

MUMBAI, DEC 29 (PTI)

Paceman Munaf Patel is fit and would be available for selection for India's third cricket Test against South Africa beginning in Cape Town on January 2.

"John Gloster (team physiotherapist) has sent a fitness update on all the players who had suffered injuries on the tour which includes Munaf Patel who has been declared fit to play the third Test," Cricket Board's Chief Administrative Officer Ratnakar Shetty said today.

Gloster had replied to a missive from the BCCI over the fitness of Patel who has been a mere spectator since injuring his ankle in the second one-dayer on November 22.

The letter was sent to the physio to get an update on Patel's progress from injury after the tour management decided to retain him instead of sending him home though he was not picked for the first two Tests.

Meanwhile, fellow-speedster Irfan Pathan returned home in the early hours today after the tour management decided that the out-of-form left armer would be better off playing Ranji Trophy for Baroda and rediscovering his wicket-taking skills.

Hope Gloster is not "just giving an OK" becos he is under pressure from Karnel and BCCI.
Pls. ensure MP is 150% fit and not some niggles here and there...These have long term implications.
