Former pacer T A Sekar said Ishant is a treasure to Indian cricket and we should protect him for the years to come. Sekar is the head of the coach in MRF pace foundation.

"Ishant is a treasure. We need to wrap him in cotton wool and protect him so that he can last long. He makes a good combination with Zaheer.”

"It's important that we monitor his progress well. We should never play him if he feels even a little uncomfortable," Sekar told to a news channel.

"He has to build up his body. That is going to help him survive for long. He knows his body best and should be given immediate rest even if he encounters a niggle," he said.

"Any bowler, who is bowling at a speed of 135 kms or more, will face some injuries. Ishant just had a niggle at that time and it was sensible to rest him."
