Ind Bang T2: Rahul Dravid Suffers Broken Jaw After Fine Century; In Hospital

Day two of the second Test between India and Bangladesh saw Rahul Dravid being admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of the Square Hospital in Dhaka, after he scored a century in a record partnership.

India's Mr. Reliant/the Wall ducked into a bouncer from Shahadat Hossain when the ball struck the side of his left cheek. Despite having the helmet and guard on, Dravid immediately looked in pain as far as his jaw was considered.

It now appears Dravid has suffered one or two minor fractures to his jaw and will remain in hospital for a day before he could be discharged. Not the best way to be celebrating a century, especially when there is unfinished business with an unbeaten 111.
