It happened while Dhoni was facing a net bowler whose delivery kicked up suddenly and brushed his forearm.
Dhoni was seen applying ice-pack but team's media manager Dr R N Baba told PTI, "Dhoni is fine and there is no problem with him."

Ayub will be back in Australia before India's match against the West Indies, scheduled on March 6.
