Star India National Cricket Team all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja’s knee injury is all set to rule him out of the upcoming ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, which is set to be held in Australia in October-November, as per a report in PTI.
On Friday, September 2, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) issued an official statement in which it was asserted that Jadeja’s right knee injury has ruled him out of the Asia Cup 2022 and Axar Patel will replace him in the squad.
