New Delhi [India], May 3: Lucknow Super Giants pace bowler Jaydev Unadkat has been ruled out of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 after sustaining a left shoulder injury which he picked while training in the nets on Sunday. Now he is in a race against time to get fully fit ahead of the World Test Championship 2023 final. While practising during the nets session, as Unadkat ran in to bowl, his foot got caught into the side net and he fell awkwardly on the ground. It has been reported that Unadkat travelled to Mumbai for scans and he also consulted with BCCI official medical staff. He is now likely to head to the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru to start his rehab to regain fitness before the WTC final. Injury Concern to Team India!
