Chennai:
Opening batsman Virender Sehwag is doubtful for India's final group match of the World Cup against the West Indies on Sunday as he has a knee injury.
"Viru (Sehwag) has got an allergic reaction in his right knee, so we will take that call (about whether to play him) either in the evening or on the morning of the game," said India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni.
If the dashing strokemaker is ruled out, Test opener Gautam Gambhir would most likely partner Sachin Tendulkar at the top of the order.
Dhoni was speaking before South Africa completed a crushing 206-run win over Bangladesh in Dhaka on Saturday that assured India of a quarter-final spot, regardless of their result against the West Indies.
