In a major blow to India, Rishabh Pant’s scan report has revealed a toe fracture which will rule him out of action for six weeks. Pant injured his right foot while attempting a reverse sweep against Chris Woakes during the opening day of the 4th Test between India and England in Manchester.
The BCCI medical team is now reportedly exploring the option of Pant being able to bat after taking painkillers.
“The scan report showed a fracture and he is ruled out for six weeks. The medical team is trying to see if he can come out to bat again by taking a pain killer. He still needs support to walk though and chances of his batting looks very bleak,” The Indian Express quoted a source as saying.
