NEW DELHI: India's vice-captain, Hardik Pandya, has been ruled out of the remainder of the World Cup due to an ankle injury that he sustained last month. The announcement came from the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Saturday, alongside their approval of Prasidh Krishna as Pandya's replacement.
Pandya suffered an ankle injury during India's match against Bangladesh on October 19 when he attempted to block a shot with his foot while bowling. This incident led to his absence in subsequent matches against England, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka.
The star all-rounder took to social media to express his emotion and to extend his support for the team in the ongoing ICC ODI World Cup.
