Centurion: Another bad news for Indian cricket fans. Batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar is ruled out of West Indies match due to food poisoning.



Seafood is Sachin's favourite dish, it’s being assumed that prawns did the damage.

Indian team medical staff have been busy administering antibiotics and keeping him hydrated, while team manager said that they will hold an investigation into the issue.

India take on West Indies in a must-win match here, hoping that Pakistan do them a favour by beating Australia.

Dinesh Kathik will replace Sachin Tendulkar in the match against West Indies at Johannesburg.

Tean India are already missing the services of Yuvraj Singh, Virender Sehwag and Zaheer Khan in the Champions Trophy.
