Decision to let Zaheer loose in a few ODis against NZ to get into the groove has backfired

Injured fast bowler Zaheer Khan was originally scheduled to join his teammates on an early flight to South
Africa.

It is learnt that India coach Gary Kirsten insisted on Zaheer Khan playing a couple of one-dayers against the touring New Zealanders so that the left-arm quick bowler would gain in terms of rhythm. Even stand-in captain Gautam Gambhir shared this view as India went about whitewashing the hapless New Zealanders 5-0.
But the hamstring injury to Zaheer may have them regretting the move now.
