Middle-order batter Suryakumar Yadav was on Sunday rested from India’s T20 World Cup game against New Zealand after he “complained of back spasm,” leading to a forced change in the playing XI.
“Suryakumar Yadav complained of back spasms. He has been advised rest by the BCCI Medical Team and has stayed back at the team hotel,” BCCI media team said in a statement.
Suryakumar’s fitness issue opened the doors for Ishan Kishan’s World Cup debut and saw India rejig their batting order with KL Rahul playing in the middle-order. India have already made a few strategic and combination errors and Suryakumar’s injury offered them the opportunity for a course correction.
