Team India will be upset by this news.
Along with this, Rahul Dravid also said that KL Rahul is progressing really well but he will not be available for the first 2 matches, and also said that the National Cricket Academy (NCA) will keep an eye on his health during the trip.
After Rahul’s injury, the pressure on the management has increased a bit because due to Rahul’s injury, only 2 wicket-keepers will be left in the team, which are Ishaan Kisan and Sanju Samson. However, Ishaan is in the 17-member squad of team India, and Sanju Samson is a traveling reserve. Now the team will consider that the management should note that Rahul who plays in the middle order, Ishaan in the top order, and Sanju Samson in the middle order.
The problem of playing 11 of the team has increased due to this injury.
Although Rahul, who is the caption of the IPL team The Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), was forced in the middle of the IPL and has been out of the team for a long time, the eyes of the whole team are on him as to when he will come back.
