A significant breakthrough in Indian cricket is the surgery that great batsman Suryakumar Yadav underwent in Germany. After surgery on Wednesday, January 17, the 33-year-old will need at least four or five weeks to recuperate.
Similar surgery was previously performed on another countryman KL Rahul, who recovered fast; Suryakumar Yadav’s recovery might take longer. He had surgery to repair damage to his ankle after getting hurt against South Africa in a just finished Twenty20 international series. This procedure preceded his sports hernia surgery.
Suryakumar Yadav will be fit for the upcoming IPL (Indian Premier League) season and the T20 World Cup 2024, which is scheduled to start in June, according to multiple BCCI sources.
In addition, the 33-year-old’s treatment approach is very different because he had surgery to treat his ankle injury. The BCCI is proceeding cautiously because they want Suryakumar to be at the peak of his game before the big events.
Will return shortly: Suryakumar Yadav
Yadav confirmed the success of his surgery on social media, assuring his supporters that he will return to the field very soon and thanking them for their concerns.
Suryakumar Yadav wrote on X (previously known as Twitter): “Surgery done, I want to thank everyone for their concerns and well wishes for my health, and I am happy to tell you all that I will be back very soon.”
