T20 World Cup 2024: Injury scare for Rohit Sharma ahead of India vs Pakistan clash

Arch-rivals India and Pakistan will lock horns in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium on Sunday. 

Ahead of the high-octane clash, India captain Rohit Sharma sustained a blow to his left thumb while batting in a net session.

During the net session, the 37-year-old star batter was smacked on the thumb, prompting rapid care from the team's medical staff. After the ball hit Rohit on the thumb he took off the glove to access the blow and the staff medical team rushed to the ground, checking the India captain.

However, Rohit  resumed practice after receiving medical assistance from the side's medical team.

Notably, the pitch of the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, where India played their first match of the campaign against Ireland, has been in the news for its uneven and slow outfield. Rohit had also taken a blow on his body during the match.
