With Shikhar Dhawan already ruled out of the tournament due to thumb fracture and Bhuvneshwar Kumar out for a few games due to a hamstring strain, here is another bad news for Team india. During india's training session ahead of afghanistan clash, a jasprit bumrah yorker hit Shankar's toes and he was apparently in pain.
The Team Management is yet to give a statement about his injury. On Thursday, shankar was seen walking around in slippers with a slight limp. Later he tried jogging wearing gym trainers but gave up after half a lap. He then did some basic exercises as others took part in usual fielding drills as well as net sessions.

He did not succeed much with the Bat in pakistan game but got a couple of important wickets against pakistan including that of skipper Sarfaraz Ahmed. india will take on afghanistan in their next match on Saturday.
