Things continue to go from bad to worse for the India Cricket Team. Ace batter Virat Kohli has reportedly undergone scans on a mystery injury. Just a week remain before the start of the Border Gavaskar Trophy first Test at Perth. And no Indian fans will be happy with this news.
While Virat Kohli has been toiling hard in the nets, reports from Australia claim that he had to visit a medical facility to get some scans done on a mystery injury. This adds more concern after KL Rahul was injured in India’s Intra-squad friendly after being struck on his elbow.
Mystery injury shrouds King Kohli
While the mystery injury isn’t of magnanimous proportion, India’s medical team is bothered about it. And this prompted Virat Kohli to undergo scans on Thursday, a day before India’s intra-squad match. The visitors are currently taking part in a three-day intra-squad game to practice in game simulations before the Perth Test on 22nd November.
While the proper extent of Kohli’s injury remains unclear, it surely will raise certain questions. On the other hand, Indian fans can ultimately heave a sigh of relief. King Kohli was spotted batting on Friday during India’s intra-squad friendly.
Ahead of the much anticipated Border Gavaskar Trophy, Kohli’s poor form in Test cricket has been raised. But former greats have put their trust in the ace batter. Sunil Gavaskar claimed that Kohli will go on to score big runs. Ravi Shastri on the other hand claimed that the King is back in his territory.
“Well, the king is back in his territory. That’s all I will tell (the doubters). When you’ve earned that title after your exploits in Australia, it will be on your (opponent’s) mind when you go out to bat,” Shastri said on the ICC Review show.
