BCCI Provides BIG Update On Ravindra Jadeja’s Availability

Ravindra Jadeja is likely to sit out of the first Test match between India vs Australia 2020 due to the concussion and a rumoured hamstring injury. If it’s a hamstring injury, the Indian all-rounder is expected to be sidelined for over 3 weeks, according to reports. Ravindra Jadeja suffered from an injury to his hamstring during the first T20I between India and Australia last week. It happened before the player was hit by the ball and diagnosed with a concussion that ruled him out of the second innings of the match and eventually the T20 series. Latest reports suggest that Ravindra Jadeja might have to sit out the first Test match between India and Australia following the ICC’s concussion protocols. The first Test match will be played in Adelaide and starts on December 17. It’s a day-night Test match and also Virat Kohli’s last appearance on the ongoing tour as the Indian team captain is set to return to India to be with his wife and attend the birth of his first child. Hardik Pandya is also returning home as the allrounder is not a part of the India squad for Australia Tests If Jadeja’s main injury problem is his hamstring, then the Indian all-rounder could end up missing out on the second Boxing Day Test in Melbourne too. The 32-year-old has been a crucial part of Virat Kohli’s Test match setup and been the Indian team’s first option whenever they have played a single spinner overseas.
