Rohit Sharma on Friday gave India fans and team management an injury scare when he left the net session midway afඣter🌃 taking a blow on his left abdomen.
The Indian skipper was facing throw🅰downs from batting coacඣh Vikram Rathour and throwing expert Nuwan Seneviratne of Sri Lanka when one sharp delivery hit Rohit on the inside region of his left thigh.
Rohit did not return to batting at th🎃e nets after taking the blow. The right-handed batsman was visibly unhappy with the pace at which the b🍌all was bowled at him, according to PTI.
The Indian team has a designated left-arm throwdown expert in Sri Lanka’s Nuwan to counter left-arm seamers in the opposition, Mustafizur Rahaman, in this particular series.
Rohit, who will lead India in the upcoming three-match T20I series against Bangladesh in Virat Kohli’s absence, however, has been declared fit for the first game in Delhi.
