Indian Cricket team is suffering a setback due to injury issues to some key players. While Jasprit Bumrah will make his comeback in the Ireland T20I series, Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul remain away from the action in International cricket. Meanwhile, as fans hope for the two to return to action, India captain Rohit Sharma has reportedly provided an update on Shreyas Iyer’s fitness.
Sharma is in the USA after playing the Test and ODI legs of the Windies tour. He is rested from T20Is. During an event, Sharma opened on Iyer’s injury. The Indian captain said that Iyer is on track to achieve full fitness and the team has kept fingers crossed over him. “Shreyas Iyer is on the track to full fitness, so fingers crossed for World Cup,” Sharma said during an event.
Meanwhile, in another relief for the Indian fans, the duo started practicing ahead of an India comeback. Rahul and Iyer recently posted videos of their batting on social media. Rahul was also seen doing wicket-keeping drills.
Before this, there were no official words from BCCI over Rahul and Iyer’s fitness in over a week. Several reports surfaced on the Internet, making different claims about the duo. While some reports suggested Rahul and Iyer are unlikely to play in the upcoming Asia Cup, some stated the former is available for selection for the regional event.
