Kolkata - South Africa's leading batsman AB de Villiers has undergone a scan on his left thigh after picking up an injury during their World Cup win over India, a team spokesperson said.

"He got a scan done on his thigh. I can't update the details till he gets the scan report," the South African team spokesperson said.
De Villiers needed a runner during his 52-run knock against India on Saturday during South Africa's thrilling three-wicket win against the co-hosts.
The 27-year-old has been in sensational form, hitting back-to-back centuries against West Indies and the Netherlands, but additional wicketkeeping workload has been taking a toll on his back.
He handed over the wicketkeeping duties to Morne van Wyk in South Africa's last two matches -- against England and India -- to help his ailing back recover.
South Africa play their next Group B match against Ireland on Tuesday at the Eden Gardens.
