This one may be serious -

Rahul Dravid hit by R P Singh bouncer

India's preparation for the coming Bangladesh tour suffered a blow, with Rahul Dravid getting hit on the face by a bouncer from R P Singh on the penultimate day of the conditioning camp in Kolkata on Saturday.

Dravid, who was having batting practice on a grassy wicket, tried to hook the delivery and the ball came off his bat and hit his face.

The Indian skipper, who was wearing a helmet, immediately collapsed and other members of the team rushed to him. Team physio John Gloster treated him for a couple of minutes before he left for the dressing room, bleeding profusely, with a towel wrapped on his face.

The extent of the injury is still not clear and so far there is no word from the team management.
