Team India are currently busy playing the World Test Championship (WTC) final against Australia at the Oval. However, ahead of that clash, they dealt a blow as KL Rahul got ruled out after sustaining an injury during the LSG vs RCB clash. He also missed the later part of the IPL and he had a successful surgery recently.
Meanwhile, ahead of the ODI World Cup later this year in India, fans are hoping to see him making a comeback to the team. Now, reports have come out that KL Rahul is set to go to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) on 13 June for his rehab session. The batter is looking to make a comeback in the upcoming Asia Cup.
KL Rahul is a sure starter for Team India in the upcoming ODI World Cup
Speaking of the upcoming tournament, it is reportedly to happen as per the proposed hybrid model by the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB). Four matches will be played in Lahore, Pakistan while all the other matches will be played in Sri Lanka. Speaking about Rahul, recently he shared an update on his recovery with images of him walking without crutches in London. Before the WTC final, he also shared an update for his fans.
He wrote: “Absolutely gutted that I won’t be at the Oval next month with Team India. I’ll do everything I can to get back in the blue and help my country. That has always been my focus and priority. After careful consideration and consultation with the medical team, it’s been concluded that I’ll be undergoing surgery on my thigh shortly. My focus will be on my rehabilitation and recovery in the coming weeks. It’s a tough call to make, but I know it’s the right one to ensure a full recovery.” But, seeing such reports, fans came up with some mixed reactions and shared their views on social media.
