Rohit tried a short arm pull and throwdowns being hurled at 150 plus speed from 18 yards climbed on him and he missed the shot by a split second.

He left the session and after that a big ice pack was tied to his right arm but he looked desolate and in considerable pain even while watching the training from a distance sitting on the ice box. Mental conditioning coach Paddy Upton was seen talking to him for a considerable amount of time. Thankfully, Rohit was soon back in the nets to continue his training session as he seemed to have recovered from the blow to his forearm.

The extent of the injury could not be known even as the Indian medical team will assess him after the session. “He didn’t feel much discomfort when he batted for the second time. CT scan or x-ray might not be needed. Also we have one day in the middle which is also optional session. It doesn’t look serious as of now,” a source privy to the development told the news agency PTI. Rohit has so far scored 89 runs in five matches of the 2022 T20 World Cup.
