Indian off-spinner Harbhajan Singh, who missed the first test against West Indies with a shoulder injury, is likely to be fit for the second test starting on Friday, India captain Saurav Ganguly said on Monday.
"He should be okay for the test," Ganguly told reporters. "I`m pretty confident he will be fit to play."
Harbhajan pulled his shoulder muscle while throwing the ball from the boundary during a warm-up game against a Guyana Cricket Board President`s XI last week.
He was taken to Trinidad for scans and had a fitness test before being ruled out.
Off-spinner Sarandeep Singh, flown in as a replacement for the first test, took his place in the team.
"Harbhajan bowled for a bit in the nets today," India coach John Wright said. "Things are looking bright."
