Srinagar: Pakistan left handed batter Haris Sohail is likely to miss first ODI against New Zealand due to injury scare he had in training session.
As per reports Sohail landed awkwardly on his left shoulder during a fielding drill on Wednesday.
His initial scans at a local hospital were satisfactory. The medical team will assess him before the first ODI tomorrow to determine if he can play, reports said.
The team doctor has advised Sohail to rest and recover to avoid aggravating the injury further.
