Washington Sundar injury mystery – The Tamil Nadu all-rounder has been struck by bad luck of late. He was ruled out of the IPL 2021 Phase 2 with a finger injury he suffered in England. He missed the T20 World Cup. After recovering from injury, he completed his rehabilitation at the NCA and was named in the South Africa tour. However, a day before boarding the flight, he was ruled out after testing positive for Covid-19.

He made a good comeback in the ODI series with three wickets for 30 runs in the 1st ODI. He scored 24 and 33 with the bat in the subsequent ODIs. While he was all set to play the T20 series, the hamstring injury will keep him out of the three-match T20s against Sri Lanka, starting February 24. He is also doubtful for the two-match Test series against Sri Lanka, starting March 3.
