Dhoni resumes training, bowls during practice

January 18, 2010 18:08 IST

Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni seems to have recovered from the back spasm which ruled him out of the ongoing first cricket Test against Bangladesh.

The stumper batsman was on Monday seen practising bowling when the second day's play was suspended due to bad light.

Dhoni bowled at India openers Gautam Gambhir and Virender Sehwag during the practice session.

Dhoni's unavailability for the series-opener could be known only on the eve of the match and Sehwag was asked to lead the side.

Indications are that regular skipper Dhoni will be fit for the second and final Test, scheduled to begin from January 24 in Dhaka.
