Kolkata, May 2 - Master blaster Sachin Tendulkar sustained injury in his right ankle during a practice session Wednesday at Eden Gardens.
Sources within the Cricket Association of Bengal - said that Tendulkar got hurt while trying to negotiate a delivery from pacer S. Sreesanth.

Led by cricket manager Ravi Shastri and captain Rahul Dravid, Indian cricketers began their five-day conditioning camp ahead of Bangladesh tour here Wednesday morning.
In the first session at the Eden Gardens they went through a fielding and fitness session for 75 minutes before packing off in sizzling heat.
Venkatesh Prasad and Robin Singh led the boys through the fielding and bowling practice.
Sources also said that Robin Uthappa, pacers Munaf Patel and Vijay Kumar Yomahesh also felt unwell in the heat but resumed practice in the next session.
