The persistent battle with injuries for Indian cricketers Ravindra Jadeja and KL Rahul has become a concerning narrative, with both players facing a series of setbacks in the last three years. Despite their cricketing prowess, the toll on their bodies has been evident, resulting in a total of 11 injuries combined since 2021.
Aged 35 and 31, respectively, Jadeja and Rahul find themselves grappling with fitness challenges that have significantly impacted their availability for matches. The frequency of their injuries is not only affecting the team’s stability but also hindering the chances for emerging players to secure a more extended stint in the Playing XI.
Over the past three years, Jadeja has encountered injuries on five occasions, while Rahul’s injury count stands at eight. This alarming trend raises concerns about the overall well-being of these key players and poses a significant challenge for the Indian team management in maintaining a consistent and reliable team composition.
