There is bad news for India before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Actually, KL Rahul suffered a right elbow injury during India’s intra-squad match simulation at the WACA ground on Friday, November 15, 2024. After this he had to retire. The severity of the injury is not known yet, but he had to leave the field for a scan. This has increased the anxiety in the Indian camp before the first Test match against Australia to be held in Perth from November 22.
KL Rahul opened with Yashasvi Jaiswal in the Instra Squad match. Which is an indication that if Rohit Sharma does not play in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, then 32-year-old KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal will open in Perth. KL Rahul was playing after scoring 29 runs. He was also handling the short ball well, when a rising ball from fast bowler Prasidh Krishna injured his right elbow.
KL Rahul looked in a lot of pain after the injury. After taking advice from the team physio, KL Rahul had to leave the field. Quoting BCCI sources, PTI wrote that, regarding KL Rahul… this has just happened so it will take some time to assess his elbow injury.
KL Rahul is trying to make a comeback in Test. He was not selected in the playing eleven after the Bengaluru match against New Zealand last month. This Bengaluru player scored his last Test century against South Africa in Centurion in December 2023. Since then he has made only two fifties in 9 innings.
