Hardik Pandya will miss the remaining 2023 ODI World Cup matches
In addition, on October 19, during the India-Bangladesh game in Pune, all-rounder Hardik Pandya injured his ankle after landing awkwardly. He was unable to play the rest of the game after leaving the pitch after this occurrence. He was thus ruled out of India's next three Test matches against England, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka. As Hardik had been receiving treatment and rehabilitation at the NCA, at first the BCCI and the team management were optimistic about his recovery. They were hoping he would be fit for Thursday's semifinals, where India had already guaranteed a spot. It is now evident, nevertheless, that Hardik's recuperation has not advanced far enough to allow him to return to the team for the remaining games.Hardik Pandya first appeared to have just an ankle sprain, but when a ligament tear was detected, things got worse. The predicted recovery duration was 10 to 15 days, even though the injury was only categorised as a Grade 1. The severity of Hardik's injury, however, is now apparent to be more than first thought. India has suffered a great deal as a result of this development, since Hardik was not only a fantastic finisher at the bat but also gave the team a useful sixth bowling option to keep things balanced.In an attempt to make up for Hardik's absence, India has turned to Mohammed Shami and Suryakumar Yadav to fill the hole in his place.In his place is Prasidh Krishna, who has taken 33 wickets in 19 ODI and T20I matches for India in the past. After overcoming a lumbar stress fracture, he triumphantly returned to the field, playing in two Twenty20 Internationals against Ireland, scoring 2/32 and 2/29. After being named in India's Asia Cup squad, he played one ODI match against Bangladesh, scoring 23 runs, and then two ODI matches against Australia, finishing with stats of 2/56 in Indore and 1/45 in Rajkot, which included the valuable wicket of David Warner.After being initially left out of India's World Cup roster, Prasidh went on to play for Karnataka in the country's top domestic T20 competition, the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. With performances like 1/15 against Madhya Pradesh, 1/15 against Nagaland, 1/30 against Uttar Pradesh, and 2/31 against Tripura, he has been among the wickets on a regular basis. However, it doesn't appear likely that Prasidh will have a chance to play given India's incredible winning streak of seven games in a row and Mohammed Shami's outstanding performance—14 wickets in just three games—into account.
