In-form Indian pacer S Sreesanth hurt his finger in the nets but skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni assured the injury was not serious and the speedster would play the third and final cricket Test against Sri Lanka starting here on Wednesday.

“He hurt his finger a bit but it’s not too serious. He would play tomorrow,” Dhoni said.
