Rohit Sharma Faces Injury Scare, Leaves Field In Middle Of IND vs IRE T20 World Cup 2024 Match

Rohit Sharma Injury Scare: India captain Rohit Sharma left the field retired hurt after scoring a half-century in the team's T20 World Cup 2024 match against Ireland.

Rohit Sharma Injury Scare: In their opening fixture of the T20 World Cup 2024 against Ireland in New York, India captain Rohit Sharma was forced to retire hurt after scoring a half-century. Rohit sustained an upper arm injury from a delivery by Joshua Little in the ninth over of India’s chase. Despite being hit, he managed to strike the next two balls for six before leaving the field, with India well on track for victory in their pursuit of 97 runs. India eventually won the IND vs IRE match by a huge margin of eight wickets.

Joshua Little delivered a length ball that unexpectedly kicked up off the surface and struck Rohit on the left elbow. Rohit visibly grimaced in pain before the physio attended to him. Subsequently, he left the field immediately. Prior to this incident, Rohit had already been hit on the same arm, likely causing discomfort. When he retired hurt, Rohit had scored 52 runs off 37 balls, including three fours and three sixes.

India Kick T20 World Cup 2024 Campaign Off With Comprehensive Win

Coming to the IND vs IRE T20 World Cup 2024 match, India won the toss and chose to bowl first. On a pitch that offered much assistance to the bowlers, India bowlers made full use of it and did not let any Irish batter settle. Hardik Pandya picked up three wickets with Arshdeep Singh and Jasprit Bumrah claiming two wickets each. Mohammed Siraj and Axar Patel took one wicket each.

Chasing the total, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli opened the batting for India. Trying to take the ultra-aggressive way, Kohli lost his wicket early, losing his wicket after scoring just one run. However, Rohit and Rishabh Pant made sure they gave nothing else to the Irish bowlers and stitched up a good partnership. India lost another batter in Suryakumar Yadav who came to the crease after Rohit’s departure from the field before Rishabh Pant reverse-lapped Barry McCarthy for a six to hit the winning runs.
