On December 22, Indian captain Rohit Sharma got hit on his knee by throwdown specialist Daya’s delivery when he was batting in the nets at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). Medics were quick to assist him with assistance with ice packets on his left knee.
After the practice session, Akash was asked about the level of his injury. He clarified that Rohit is sure to play in the Boxing-Day Test since his injury is not something to be afraid of, and the Indian captain will just undergo a routine before practicing in the nets as usual.
“Injuries like these keep happening when you play. I don’t think it will matter much and he’s okay. He will be seen playing in the Melbourne Test match. There is nothing to worry about,” Deep told the reporters.
Deep was not a part of the playing XI for the first two Tests of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. For the Gabba Test, he came in place of Harshit Rana. His only wicket in the first innings was of Alex Carey who was looking to score fast wickets.
