India T20 Squad SL Series: The injured trio of Indian superstar Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja are unlikely to be risked for the T20 series. However, all three will return to the ODI series.

Virat Kohli and KL Rahul are unlikely to be selected for the T20 LEG in the series. According to the available information, Rishabh Pant will face the ax of the T20 team. In all likelihood, Sanju Samson and Ishan Kishan will be chosen before Pant.

“Rohit is not 100% yet and we don’t want to take any chances on injury. Jadeja and Bumrah are back at the NCA. Their prognosis is good. If they pass the fitness test, they will be eligible for selection. But given the workload in the ODIs, it’s only natural that they’ll come back in the ODIs. The T20s are not our focus right now,” a senior BCCI official told InsideSport on Saturday.

Rohit Sharma Injury – The Indian captain is nursing the thumb injury he suffered in the IND BAN 2nd ODI. With the Australian series coming in February, BCCI doesn’t want to take any chances. The medical team will carry out an injury assessment. It will only come back if it is 100%.

IND vs SL Series: What is Rohit’s injury status?

• The board are not prepared to take any risks with Rohit’s injury,
• In previous instances, he rushed players like Deepak Chahar and Jasprit Bumrah, and paid the price.
• With the Australia Test series coming up in February, the board want to make sure Rohit’s thumb is fully healed.
• A place in the WTC’s bottom spot is on the line, and the Indian opener’s availability for the Australian series is vital.
• Rohit is currently experiencing stiffness in his thumb. The BCCI medical team advised Rohit to undergo full drug treatment.
• The duration of this is still not known, but for now it may take three to four weeks.

Ravindra Jadeja’s Wound – The all-rounder was due to return for the Bangladesh tour. But without improvement, he missed out. He’s also back at the NCA right now. He had an injury assessment prior to the IPL auction. He is progressing well but he is still not 100% and will continue on the sidelines. He is likely to return to the NZ series.
