Injuries to aggressive opening batsman Virender Sehwag and pace spearhead Zaheer Khan has left Indian team skipper M S Dhoni worried ahead of T20 World Cup that gets underway on Friday.
Speaking to reporters, Dhoni said he was unsure when Sehwag would be fit enough to play.
However, he expected the explosive opener to be in the side for team's second match of the tournament against Ireland on June 10.
Sehwag and Zaheer returning to the playing 11 is also likely to affect team's winning combination.
Rohit Sharma who replaced Sehwag and Praveen Kumar who led Indian bowling attack in Zaheer's absence during two practice matches, gave good performance in the games.
Besides, reports of tiff between Dhoni and Sehwag are haunting defending champions India who clinched the inaugural competition held in South Africa in 2007.
