Pandya’s ‘Return To Play’ date was set for September 20 and, accordingly, the selectors picked him for India A for the upcoming One-Day series against Australia A starting October 6. “This is very unfortunate but Hardik’s latest scan reports have revealed an injury to his right shin.
BCCI’s medical panel head Dr Dinshaw Pardiwala has seen his reports and, on his return from Japan, will assess him and decide on when he can start his rehabilitation,” a BCCI source tracking COE developments told PTI on condition of anonymity. Senior all-rounder Hardik Pandya has sustained a fresh injury to his right shin, which is all set to rule him out of competitive cricket for at least three weeks, including the white-ball tour of New Zealand. He has been advised complete rest for a period of two weeks.
