Recently, the Indian cricket team’s playing combination across the formats has been forced to shuffle because of multiple injury setbacks. As multiple cricketers are still recovering and in the process of regaining match fitness, the Indian team management may have to set the squad without multiple first-team players for the Sri Lanka series.
Abhishek Tripathi, a Dainik Jagran reporter, provided detailed fitness updates of Sundar, Bumrah, Rana, Sudharsan, and Reddy. Needless to say, none of these five cricketers’ present fitness updates are satisfying, as all of them are under recovery sessions.

Harshit Rana and Nitish Kumar Reddy, two pace-bowling all-rounders, are set to miss the series entirely, while the top-order batter Sai Sudharsan’s chances to face Sri Lanka are brighter among these five injured cricketers. Sudharsan is recovering well, as it is reported.
