India's already depleted bowling resources on the Pakistan tour were hit further on Tuesday when Ashish Nehra was ruled out for the rest of the one-day series.
The left-arm seamer received two stitches when he split the webbing of his bowling hand while fielding during the second one-dayer here and will not play for at least a week, team official Amrit Mathur said.
"Nehra's injury will be assessed next week to see if he can play in the Test series which follows the one-dayers," Mathur said.
Nehra was supposed to have missed Tuesday's match as well after an old ankle injury flared up again on the eve of the match and the team management declared his unavailability for the game.
But the bowler, whose spot-on final over won India the first one-dayer at Karachi on Saturday, was surprisingly retained in the team and finished with 3-44 in Pakistan's total of 329-6.
Nehra will sit out of the third one-dayer in Peshawar on Friday and the last two in Lahore on March 21 and 24.
India are already without three injured frontline bowlers, seamer Ajit Agarkar and spinners Anil Kumble and Harbhajan Singh, on their first full tour of Pakistan since 1989.
The squad for the three-Test series, which begins on March 28, is expected to be picked next week.
