T20 World Cup 2024: On June 20, the Indian cricket team is going to play the first match of Super-8 in the T20 World Cup 2024. India is going to face Afghanistan under the leadership of Rohit Sharma. So far Team India has not faced defeat in a single match.

Therefore, there is little scope for change based on performance. But according to a recent update, one senior Indian player may not be able to play in the match against Afghanistan.

Big blow to India

• The Indian team had a practice session on June 17, in which almost all the players participated.
• The most worrying news that has come out during the practice is that Suryakumar Yadav has been injured.
• While taking the throw down, the ball hit his hand and Surya started groaning in pain.
• Seeing this, the physio came running and gave Yadav a painkiller spray after which Surya took charge again.
• But he still seemed to be in pain.
  Seeing this, head coach Rahul Dravid also got worried. He also talked to Surya and the physio for a long time.

Big trouble for Team India

• If Suryakumar Yadav is unable to recover from his injury in the match against Afghanistan on June 20, it could be a big setback for the Indian team.
• Because he single-handedly scored a fifty in the last match against America and led them to victory.
• That too on the difficult pitch of Nassau Cricket Stadium.
  If the number-1 T20 batsman in ICC rankings is out of the team, then almost half the strength will be lost.
• Now whether Surya will play against Afghanistan or not will be confirmed only at the time of the toss.

T20 World Cup 2024: This player can replace

• Also the question arises that if Suryakumar Yadav is not able to recover on time then who will take his place.
• Sanju Samson is currently leading this race.
  He has not played a single match in this T20 World Cup 2024.
• In the practice match, he was definitely seen as an opener with Rohit Sharma.
• But after the main tournament started, Sanju is warming the bench.
• On the basis of his excellent performance in IPL 2024, he has got a chance to play in the ICC tournament (T20 World Cup 2024) for the first time. He scored 531 runs in 16 innings.
