Dhoni uncertain to feature in Asia Cup after suffering back spasm

Indian captain MS Dhoni endured a back fit Monday amid a practice session in a noteworthy hit to his group only in front of the up and coming Asia Cup Twenty20, the national cricket body said. 

Dhoni, 34, managed the muscle harm in his back amid India's first workout in Bangladesh in front of the 12-day competition beginning Wednesday, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said in an announcement. 

The BCCI named wicketkeeper-batsman Parthiv Patel as Dhoni's spread in the 15-part Indian squad for the occasion. 

Patel, 30, last played for India amid the ODI triangular arrangement in Australia in February 2012. 

"Parthiv has been summoned as (a) safety oriented measure," the Indian group's media chief Nishant Arora said, by Press Trust of India. 

Dhoni's harm comes as the most recent misfortune for his group after Indian pacer Mohammed Shami was precluded of the Asia Cup a week ago since he neglected to recuperate from a hamstring strain. 

The commander's back issue fuelled worries over a rejig in the batting arrange, and significantly all the more so over his wellness in front of one month from now's pivotal World Twenty20, with India looking at a second worldwide title in the configuration.
