India Captain Ruled Out Of Action Till August Due To Sports Hernia: Report

Overview

  • Yadav is consulting a London specialist for a right-side sports hernia and may undergo surgery depending on medical advice.
  • He is projected to need approximately eight weeks of recovery, placing his return around August and casting doubt on his availability for India’s T20I series in Bangladesh.
  • The timing of the treatment leverages a gap in India’s white-ball schedule and allows for rehabilitation at the BCCI Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru.
  • The 33-year-old amassed 717 runs in 16 IPL 2025 matches, establishing a new T20 record with 16 consecutive scores of at least 25.
  • If Yadav is sidelined, vice-captain Shubman Gill or deputy Axar Patel are the leading candidates to captain India in the upcoming Bangladesh fixtures.
