India captain Rohit Sharma has been hit on his left knee during team India’s net session in Melbourne ahead of the Boxing Day Test against Australia, as per a report by Times of India. Rohit was reportedly facing throwdown specialist Daya during day two of the training session when he got injured.
The 37-year-old batter continued to bat for a while despite the injury before getting the requisite attention from the team physio. Rohit reportedly removed his gear and looked in considerably pain as the physio put ice pack on his left leg. Hi
The report notes that the injury did not look very serious and the team physio is taking precautions to make sure that any swelling on Rohit’s leg subsides. With around four days left for India vs Australia’s 4th Test, Indian fans would be hoping that the 37-year-old can regain fitness ahead of the all-important clash.
