An ankle injury will prevent Suryakumar Yadav, India’s explosive white-ball hitter and T20I standout, from playing in the forthcoming T20I series against Afghanistan. In addition, he is projected to miss the entire domestic season because of a sports hernia, and possibly the first part of the IPL as well. Yadav is scheduled to have the same procedure in Germany.
Suryakumar Yadav is reportedly recuperating at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru after receiving a sports hernia diagnosis.
He is scheduled to have surgery in Munich in a few days. This disqualifies him from representing Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy and maybe the first few IPL matches with the Mumbai Indians.
Sports hernia was the diagnosis made for Suryakumar Yadav lately. At the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru, he is presently recovering. He’s flying to Munich, Germany, in two or three days to get surgery on it. It means he’s not going to play for Mumbai this season in the Ranji Trophy and is probably going to miss the Mumbai Indians’ opening IPL games, a BCCI source told TOI.
Sports hernias are tears in the groin or lower abdomen brought on by tearing muscles, ligaments, or tendons. They are not true hernias. They frequently happen in physically demanding sports like football and soccer and are the result of pelvic twisting with planted feet. The leading wicketkeeper batsman for India, KL Rahul, had a sports hernia operation in Germany in 2022.
Suryakumar Yadav will have ample opportunity to recuperate ahead of the T20 World Cup in June. According to the source, “He is essential to India’s chances in the T20 World Cup.”
During South Africa’s final Twenty20 international match in Johannesburg, Suryakumar Yadav sustained an ankle injury. Indian cricket supporters are upbeat about his recuperation and his potential to contribute in upcoming competitions, despite this setback. We’ll see if he can return in time for the 2024 Indian Premier League.
