Team India got a big shock before the Sri Lanka match, after Hardik Pandya, these players got injured and are out of World Cup 2023.
Team India’s veteran batsman and captain Rohit Sharma has started the World Cup 2023 from where he left the World Cup 2019. He has scored heavily in almost all the matches. Its impact is clearly visible on the team’s results. Host India has won 6 consecutive matches in the tournament so far and is at the top of the points table. Now they have to play the next match against Sri Lanka. But meanwhile, it is feared that Rohit Sharma may miss the India vs Sri Lanka match to be played at the historic Wankhade Stadium in Mumbai.
Rohit Sharma will not play the match against Sri Lanka
36-year-old Rohit Sharma suffered a thumb injury during the practice session before the match against England, but despite this he took part in the match against England. During this, he played a very important inning of 87 runs and played a big role in the victory of the team (Team India). With this victory, it is almost certain for India to reach the semi-finals. In such a situation, Rohit can take a break from the next match against Sri Lanka.
With Rohit taking a break, the pressure on other Indian players will increase. Rohit has batted brilliantly so far in the tournament. In the World Cup 2023, he has played innings of 0, 131, 86, 48, 46, and 87 runs. Apart from this, Hardik Pandya will also not be a part of the playing eleven in this match.
Hardik Pandya was injured against Bangladesh
Team India’s vice-captain and all-rounder Hardik Pandya also got injured during the match against Bangladesh. He injured his leg while trying to stop a four while bowling. Initially he was dropped only from the match against New Zealand, but he could not get fit even before the match against England. It is being said in the latest report that Hardik can join the squad before the semi-finals. In such a situation, now other players of the team will also have to take responsibility and make big or small contributions to the team’s victory.
