The three-match ODI series against Zimbabwe will start from August 18. KL Rahul returns to the cricket field after a long time in this series. Apart from this, fast pitcher Deepak Chahar has also returned to Team India through this series. However, ahead of the Asian Cup and the T20 World Cup, the coaches will be keeping an eye on the fitness of these two players.
The coaches have asked VVS Laxman, who plays the role of coach on the Zimbabwe tour, to keep an eye on the fitness of these two players. Both players have been injured since the IPL and are now making their way back to the cricket field. The coaches want to know if KL Rahul and Deepak Chahar are 100% fit for the match.
According to the Inside Sport report, a coach said: “Rahul and Chahar are important to the India team. We want him to be fit. We have asked him to monitor his fitness. Rahul has to join the team for the Asian Cup. Chahar is also on our radar. Rahul is coming back after surgery. Chahar was also injured.
Deepak Chahar was injured just before the start of the 15th season of the Indian Premier League. Chahar’s injury has been very serious and it has taken him about 6 months to recover. KL Rahul has also been away from the cricket field for the last four months.
We tell you that at the end of this year, the Indian team has to participate in the T20 World Cup that will be held in Australia. KL Rahul will play the role of Rohit Sharma’s partner in the tournament. At the same time, due to Jasprit Bumrah’s injury, Deepak Chahar has become very important for the India team.
