The knee injury of star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has disrupted the team combination and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is not happy about it. “We are not happy about Jadeja’s injury. He should have kept the World Cup in mind in adventure activities. But he was not responsible and did not think that the World Cup was coming. We are not happy with this action by Jadeja,” said one source to ANI.
Jadeja had injured his right knee and was ruled out of the 2022 Asian Cup after playing the first two matches of the event against Pakistan and Hong Kong.
On Tuesday, Jadeja underwent knee surgery and the all-rounder will soon start his rehabilitation. Jadeja announced on Instagram on Tuesday that his operation was successful.
“The surgery was successful. There are many people to thank for their support and involvement – BCCI, my teammates, support staff, physios, doctors and the fans. I will start my rehabilitation soon and try to get back as soon as possible. Thank you everyone for your kind wishes,” said Jadeja in a message.
