London: Stoke City talisman Bojan Krkic is out of his side’s New Years’ Day clash against Manchester United.

The in-form forward went off with a suspected hamstring injury in the victory against West Bromwich Albion Sunday, as per reports.

Bojan underwent medical tests Tuesday afternoon and they have revealed minimal damage to an interior muscle between the hamstring and groin.

However, the lunchtime visit of United to the Britannia Stadium comes too soon and the former Barcelona star is expected to be out for around a week.

He will also sit out the FA Cup match against Wrexham Sunday.

Bojan has scored three Premier League goals since joining Stoke in the summer.

The left-handed batsman from Haryana is garnering praise from all quarters for the way he’s finishing games regularly in the most exciting IPL season.

Gavaskar reckons Tewatia’s whirlwind knock in Sharjah (in IPL 2020) where he smashed West Indies pacer Sheldon Cottrell for five sixes in an over, gave him the confidence that he belongs to the big stage.

Speaking on Cricket Live on Star Sports, Gavaskar said, “That assault on Sheldon Cottrell in Sharjah gave him the belief to do the impossible and the confidence that he belongs here. We saw the impossible (he did with the bat) the other day as well. There’s no twitching or touching the pads (which shows a batter’s nervousness) when he bats in the death overs. He just waits for the ball to be delivered and plays his shots. He’s got all the shots in the book, but most importantly his temperament to stay cool in a crisis is brilliant.”

Gavaskar has also nicknamed the 28-year-old cricketer the ‘ice-man’ and lauded Tewatia’s ability to remain unruffled during the tense moments.
