Nari Contractor out of ICU

Former India skipper Nari Contractor is out of the Intensive Care Unit after he hurt his head while taking a morning walk on Saturday.

A family member told MiD DAY last night that the left-handed batsman, who played for India in the 1950s and 1960s was stable and well. Contractor was admitted to the Parsee General Hospital in Mumbai. It can be recalled that he suffered a skull injury while facing Barbados pace terror Charlie Griffith on India's 1961-62 tour of the West Indies. The injury put an end to Contractor's Test career.

A few years ago, he visited the Caribbean to witness the opening of blood banks in honour of erstwhile Windies captain Sir Frank Worrell, who died of leukaemia at the age of 42 in 1967.
