Border-Gavaskar Trophy: KL Rahul on Friday copped a blow on his right elbow and left the field for scans during India’s match simulation at the WACA ground, raising concern ahead of the first Test against Australia here from November 22.
Rahul made 29 runs before pacer Prasidh Krishna pinged on his elbow with a climbing delivery, and the batter had to walk off after consulting with the team physio.
The 32-year-old is in line to open the innings if skipper Rohit Sharma does not play in the first Test of the five-match Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.
“About Rahul…it’s just happened so will take some time to assess (his elbow),” BCCI sources were quoted by PTI as saying.
