Poor Dinesh’s nose was hit during practice today. We were going through the rigors of the hat drill, that involves throwing the ball at each other’s direction. Unfortunately, he missed catching it by a whisker, and bang! His nose took a hit. It started bleeding and did look bad. I must say though, I was concerned for a while till they said nothing was broken. He was asked to take off from practice for the day. He however came back later in the day, to pitch to batters for some batting practice. It was a relief to see him up and going.
