BAN vs IND: After their humiliating loss in the first game, the Indian team lost by a slim margin against Bangladesh in the second ODI. At Sher-e-Bangla Stadium in Mirpur, the visiting team fell just five runs short of a 272-run goal on Wednesday (December 7).
Apart from their inconsistent and disappointing performance, the Indian team also experienced a setback because their star pacer Deepak Chahar and captain Rohit Sharma both suffered minor injuries and are now unable to play in the third ODI, which is scheduled for December 10 at Chattogram’s Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium.
Rohit, Deepak, and Kuldeep Sen would undoubtedly miss the third ODI game, Indian head coach Rahul Dravid said after the game. He said that Rohit will travel back to India for a checkup and return for the Tests if he recovered.
“Without a doubt, Kuldeep, Deepak, and Rohit won’t be at the upcoming game. Kuldeep and Deepak are out of the series, and Rohit will undoubtedly miss the following game as well. He will then fly back to Bombay, speak with a doctor, and determine whether he can return for the Test matches or not. That would be premature to say. To be sure, none of the three will participate in the next game “After the game, Rahul Dravid said.
During the second over, the Indian skipper was fielding in slips when he hurt his left thumb. He missed the bulk of Bangladesh’s innings because he had to leave the field for a scan. He did, however, come back to bat at No. 9 and scored an unbeaten 51 runs off 28 balls to help India draw closer to the objective. He disclosed his thumb’s poor appearance and slight dislocation after the game.
“The thumb isn’t all that terrific. The finger had a small amount of dislocation and needed to be stitched. I could come out and bat because, fortunately, it isn’t a fracture, which is a good thing and a positive “In a post-game conference, Rohit said.
Kuldeep Sen made his ODI debut in the first match, taking two wickets. However, he was substituted by Umran Malik for the second match due to a slight back injury. Deepak’s injury-related absence from the third game makes India’s injury issues worse. Chahar came out to bat despite only being able to bowl three overs due to hamstring pain. The third and final ODI on Saturday will likely feature just five bowlers for the Indian team because Sen and Deepak are both injured.
