Due to this, Gaikwad informed the BCCI medical team about the pain in his right wrist (Ruturaj Gaikwad Injury).

It is unlikely that the BCCI will replace him in the team. India already has three openers in the team. Prithvi Shaw is at the forefront of the race to make a comeback.

Couldn’t even play T20 series due to wrist injury:-

Ruturaj also missed the T20I series against Sri Lanka last year due to a wrist injury. He didn’t find a place in India’s playing XI against Sri Lanka this year too as Shubman Gill opened with Ishan Kishan.

A BCCI official told InsideSport, “Yes, Ruturaj is at the NCA with a wrist injury. We don’t know yet whether it’s serious or not.

But considering the short schedule for the matches, it is unlikely that he will be available at this point of time. His scan is underway and we will know more once the reports come.
