All-rounder Shankar had left the field and was taken for a precautionary scan, after being hit in the forearm during a training session on Friday. After copping the blow, Shankar was then attended by the team physio.
"Vijay Shankar was hit on his right forearm during practice on Friday. He underwent scans and no fracture has been detected. BCCI Medical Team is aiding him in his recovery," BCCI posted on their twitter handle.
However, the Tamil Nadu all-rounder didn't take part in the first warm-up game and is also unlikely to play in the second practice match against Bangladesh at Cardiff on Tuesday as there is a bit of bruise, which will take time to heal.
Shankar on Saturday took some throwdowns batting 'single-handed' during the net session prior to the New Zealand game.
