Gautam Gambhir rushed to hospital for medical examination

Indian opener Gautam Gambhir was Saturday rushed to a local hospital for a pre-cautionary medical check-up for mild concussion after he hurt himself on the second day on Friday of the fourth and final cricket Test against England in London.

Gambhir's head hit the ground hard while attempting a catch on Friday and as he was feeling uncomfortable this morning, he was taken to the hospital for a scan.

Rahul Dravid opened in the Indian reply along with Virender Sehwag after England declared their first innings at 591 for six.

"Gautam Gambhir had a mild concussion when he hit the ground while attempting to catch a ball yesterday. As he was continuing to feel uncomfortable this morning, he was sent for a precautionary scan. The medical examination is underway," a BCCI release said.

Gambhir also missed the second Test at Trent Bridge after he was hit on his left elbow by a sweep shot by England wicketkeeper Matt Prior in the first match at Lord's.
