NEW DELHI: India captain Rohit Sharma, who was hit on his left abdomen during a net session, has been declared “fit and available” for the first T20 International against Bangladesh on Sunday.
Rohit, who will lead India in the three-match series in Virat Kohli’s absence, received the blow early into the net session while taking throwdowns.
After a few throwdowns, one sharp delivery hit Rohit on the inside region of jios left thigh.
He immediately left the nets and it was visible that he wasn’t happy with the pace at which the throwdown delivery was hurled at him.
“Rohit Sharma was hit on the left side of his abdomen while batting in the nets today. The BCCI medical team has confirmed that he is fit and available for the first T20 after assessment of his injury,” the BCCI media manager issued a statement on behalf of the team. (AGENCIES)
