Kolkata, Nov 4: Star India all-rounder Hardik Pandya was on Saturday ruled out of the ongoing World Cup after failing to recover from his ankle injury.
Pacer Prasidh Krishna, who played 17 ODIs, has been named Pandya’s replacement in the Indian squad, the ICC said in a media release.
Pandya had hurt his left ankle while fielding of his own bowling in the game against Bangladesh in Pune on October 19. “Tough to digest the fact that I will miss out on the remaining part of the World Cup. I’ll be with the team, in spirit, cheering them on every ball of every game,” said Pandya. (PTI)
