Rohit Sharma faces injury scare during practice ahead of India vs Pakistan T20 World Cup | Pragativadi | Odisha News, Breaking News Odisha, Latest Odisha News – N.F Times


 

New York: It is yet to be confirmed whether India captain Rohit Sharma will be playing the blockbuster game against Pakistan in the ongoing T20 World Cup series, having injured his hand during the match against Ireland.

 

On Wednesday, his knock was cut short following a blow on his upper arm from a delivery by pacer Josh Little. He left the field after a few overs, retired hurt, having scored an unbeaten 52 off 37. He later opened up on the injury in the post-match presentation, saying, “It was a sore arm.”

 

On Friday, as India looked to prepare for the match against Pakistan in New York, Rohit suffered yet another injury scare as he was hit on the thumb, as revealed by RevSportz in their discussion on the training session. The veteran opener was up against Sri Lankan throwdown specialist Nuwan in the nets when the ball bounced awkwardly and hit him in the hand. He was immediately attended to, but resumed batting shortly after from the other end of the practice net, but only for few minutes before leaving.
