Ahead Of T20 WC, Washington Sundar Resumes Batting In Recovery From Rib Injury
Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital: In what comes as an encouraging development for India ahead of next month’s T20 World Cup, off-spin bowling all-rounder Washington Sundar has resumed batting in the nets as part of his rehabilitation from a rib injury at the BCCI Centre of Excellence (CoE) in Bengaluru.
“Yes, Washington has resumed batting, but at a very low intensity. He batted for a bit and that is very encouraging. The little bit of discomfort around ribs will be there initially because he hasn't done anything for some time now. He should be okay as he now will gradually move ahead in his path to total recovery,” said a source aware of the development to IANS on Wednesday.
Sundar, 26, has been sidelined since suffering acute discomfort in his lower rib area while bowling during the first ODI against New Zealand at the BCA Stadium in Vadodara, on January 11 and was ruled out of the rest of the 50-over games, as well as the ongoing T20I series.
