Delhi Capitals, Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings and Sunrisers Hyderabad are four teams who have been dealt with a killer blow. The availability of five players from these four teams is still uncertain with the season knocking at the door.
Check out which five players are currently nursing injuries:
1. Anrich Nortje – Delhi Capitals
Anrich Nortje has not played any match since November 6 of last year owing to a hip injury. It was previously believed that a four-month break will be enough for the Delhi Capitals player to make a complete recovery, but that has not turned out to be the case. The South African speedster is yet to recover from his hip trouble and is likely to miss a significant portion of the action.

He is currently undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings are waiting for a detailed report on his injury, which is expected to be given to them in a day or two.
3. Deepak Chahar – Chennai Super Kings
Whilst Gaikwad’s injury is unlikely to be a long-term one, Chennai Super Kings’s INR 14 crores worth pacer Deepak Chahar could miss a vast majority of the games after sustaining a right quadriceps tear in the series against West Indies. Like Gaikwad, he too is currently undergoing rehabilitation at NCA.

4. Kane Williamson – Sunrisers Hyderabad
Kane Williamson’s situation is a lot like Anrich Nortje. He last featured back in November, and since then, has been sidelined with a shoulder injury. Though it was initially thought to be a minor injury, recurring pain has pushed back his return to the field on multiple occasions. The Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper has arrived in Mumbai, but it remains to be seen whether he will be available for the first match itself or not.
5. Suryakumar Yadav – Mumbai Indians
Mumbai Indians’ star batter Suryakumar Yadav has been ruled out of his team’s first match of the season owing to a hairline fracture in his hand. But on the flip side, the Mumbai camp can heave a sigh of relief as it has been confirmed that Yadav will be available from the second game onwards.
