Abhishek Sharma’s availability in IND vs ENG 2nd T20I doubtful due to…

New Delhi: India has been dealt an injury concern ahead of their second T20I against England at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Opener Abhishek Sharma twisted his right ankle during a warm-up session on Friday evening.

Abhishek appeared to be in significant discomfort and received treatment from the physio. Although he was able to walk after the initial care and even went to the nets at the MAC B Stadium, the left-hander didn’t take to the field to bat.

The left-handed batter was spotted limping at the nets, casting doubt on his availability for the match on Saturday evening. In the opening match in Kolkata, he was India’s top scorer with 79, which played a key role in securing a comfortable victory at Eden Gardens.
