A post shared by KL Rahul👑 (@klrahul)

“Absolutely gutted that I won’t be at the Oval next month with Team India. I’ll do everything I can to get back in the blue and help my country. That has always been my focus and priority. After careful consideration and consultation with the medical team, it’s been concluded that I’ll be undergoing surgery on my thigh shortly. My focus will be on my rehabilitation and recovery in the coming weeks. It’s a tough call to make, but I know it’s the right one to ensure a full recovery,” the 31-year-old had shared on social media.

Since Rahul was injured, the BCCI roped in Ishan Kishan as a replacement for the injured KL Rahul for the WTC final. The board also added Ruturaj Gaikwad, Suryakumar Yadav, and Mukesh Kumar as the reserves.

The Karnataka-based batter even shared an update once his surgery was over. He wrote, “Hi everyone, I just got done with my surgery – it was successful. A big thank you to the doctors and medical staff for making sure I was comfortable and everything went smoothly. I’m officially on the road to recovery now. I’m determined to get back to my best and get back on the field. Onwards and upwards!”
