After Team India's defeat in the Border Gavaskar Trophy, questions are being raised about the future of veteran players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Now BCCI has expressed concern about the future of a young player. Young fast bowler Akash Deep played two matches on the Australian tour and took five wickets. This performance is not good but it cannot be called bad either. Even though he did not get many wickets, Akash impressed with his bowling. But he had to be out of the Sydney Test due to a back injury. Now BCCI has expressed concern about his injury and his Test career and has warned him.
A BCCI official said, 'At the age Akash is, if he is out of the playing eleven due to repeated injuries, then it may be difficult for him to make a long international career. The BCCI official said that back injury had been troubling Akash even before he started playing domestic cricket for Bengal in 2019. According to the officer, Akash will have to take special care of his injury.
Team India's tour of Australia was for about one and a half months. Akash was associated with the team from the beginning. Even though he was not lucky in terms of wickets, Akash Deep caught everyone's attention by bowling on the right line length. Now Team India will tour England in June. Where the Indian team will play a series of five test matches. Now it remains to be seen whether Akash is given a chance against England after his performance or not. Let us tell you that Akash has played a total of 7 test matches so far. He has taken 15 wickets at an average of 35.2.
Akash had to miss the Sydney Test due to injury. Now he has suffered another big shock. Akash was to play for Bengal in the knockout match of the domestic tournament Vijay Hazare Trophy but he has been ruled out after injury.
