"There is marginal improvement but the wound is yet to be filled up and needs more dressing. For this the hospitalisation period has to be extended at least till Wednesday," doctors attending on Ganguly - M Nandy and Sukumar Mukherjee told reporters at a press conference here. The doctors said Ganguly was free from fever and had a good sleep last night. "He is comfortable, though the pain is still there."

The Indian skipper had to undergo surgery for an abscess, for the second time in five days, in his left thigh yesterday at a private nursing home here. (Agencies)
