NEW DELHI: The Indian team’s preparation for this year’s ODI World Cup seems to have hit a hurdle with recurring injuries to some primary players. With Shreyas Iyer being ruled out of the upcoming three-match ODI series against Australia and a substantial part of the IPL, the Indian cricket board (BCCI) and the team management is seeking answers from the sports science department at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru.
Iyer is the latest to have joined a fairly long list of players who have broken down during a match after having been declared fit by the NCA. The board has also maintained secrecy over Jasprit Bumrah’s surgery in New Zealand. The team management was already frustrated by Deepak Chahar’s frequent breakdowns.
