Tamil Nadu batsman, S.Badrinath has been called in as his replacement. Tendulkar hurt his elbow in an attempt to catch in the 47th over of the Sri Lankan innings. He was quickly taken off from the ground and MRI scans did reveal that there was some swelling on the elbow. He didn’t make it to the ground for the rest of the day on Saturday. However, he did bat on the fourth day for the Indian second innings. Tendulkar made 14 runs and is still short of 77 runs in order to surpass Brian Lara’s record.
