India’s limited-overs captain Rohit Sharma is recovering well from his left hamstring injury and has a bright chance of making a comeback for the six-match home white-ball series against the West Indies next month.
Rohit, who was also the designated Test vice-captain for the tour of South Africa, sustained a left-hamstring strain during a net session just prior to the team’s departure for the tour and had to pull out. He was subsequently also forced to skip the ODIs in SA as he couldn’t attain full fitness.
“Rohit’s rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy is going pretty well. He is expected to be okay for the West Indies series. It’s still close to three weeks from now before the first ODI is played in Ahmedabad from February 6,” a BCCI source told PTI on condition of anonymity. The series against the West Indies comprises three ODIs and as many T20 Internationals.
