It was not immediately clear which bowler's delivery hit him and the team staff refused to answer questions on the incident when approached by Reuters.

Sehwag had already been struggling with a knee injury which forced him to play with a runner for a major part of his innings against Bangladesh in the tournament's opening match last Saturday.

India play their key Group B match in Bangalore against England on Sunday.
