Kl rahul injury update

“A big thank you to the doctors and medical staff for making sure I was comfortable and everything went smoothly,” the LSG skipper added. “I am officially on the road to recovery now. I am determined to get back to my best and get back on the field. Onwards and upwards,” he added. LSG had suffered a double blow on the day with KL Rahul, an all-format player, will likely target a return to the Indian cricket team in time for the Asia Cup in September and the ODI World Cup in India in October-November. Read all the Phasing Rohit Sharma out and grooming a new leader in next WTC cycle is the way forward for Team India The defeat against Australia in the WTC final not only has hit the morale of the Indian dressing room, but has also put a question mark over skipper Rohit Sharma's future as the India skipper, at least in the Test format for now. •

Lucknow Super Giants leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi said that the Lucknow suffered a blow when captain KL Rahul went off the field in pain in only the second over of the game while clutching his right thigh. Rahul didn’t appear again until the fall of his team’s ninth wicket. He faced three balls but couldn’t get off the mark before Bangalore wrapped up a convincing win. “It was a chasable score. Injury to Bishnoi, who finished with 2 for 21 admitted that it was a chasable total on a low and slow pitch. “127 was a chasable score on this wicket, but we just had a bad day with the bat. Otherwise, it was a good wicket to bat on,” he said. Two matches in a row when LSG has failed to chase a low total on a tricky home track and Bishnoi said the playing conditions are not in their hands. “Sometimes, you can’t change 130 on a good surface. We will have to play on the given wicket, it is not in our hands. We need to adapt and do well,” he said.

Apart from being the captain, Rahul is the second-highest run-scorer for LSG in this IPL. It was immediately apparent it was a serious injury when Rahul pulled up during the chase in the outfield after Faf du Plessis steered the ball towards the boundary. He went down immediately, and waited for medical attention. The support staff was so worried about it they immediately called for a stretcher to help him off the field. Unadkat was bowling around the wicket in the nets when in his follow through his left foot got stuck in the rope that keeps the nets up. He had a nasty fall on his elbow, and was seen with his arm in a sling with an ice pack on his left shoulder. It is learnt that he will remain in Lucknow for now, and is in touch with the BCCI medical staff, awaiting instructions on whether he needs to travel to the NCA in Bengaluru or elsewhere for further consultation. It is understood that while the shoulder remains sore, there is no dislocation. *Rahul later limped out to bat at No. 11 in the 19th over of the chase as the asking rate crept up for LSG. He could not score off the three balls he faced as his team went down by 18 runs. Krunal wasn't sure but said after the game that Rahul might have hurt his hip flexor and "the medical team will assess him and see how it goes."
