Prithvi Shaw, who was unable to play in the Delhi Capitals' (DC) last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH), revealed on Sunday that he was hospitalized due to fever. DC faces Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in match 55 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022.
DC opener, Shaw, has revealed that he was admitted to the hospital due to a fever, explaining his absence from the Capitals' set-up in IPL 2022. The 22-year-old posted a photo from the hospital and expressed his hope to return soon.
The Mumbai stalwart was not included in the XI against SRH, but captain Rishabh Pant did not elaborate on his absence. Shaw last played against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).
In the game against SRH, DC management replaced Shaw with Mandeep Singh. Meanwhile, David Warner scored a swashbuckling knock of 92 runs against his former franchise.
"Admitted in hospital and recovering from fever. Thank you for all your good wishes, will be back in action soon," Shaw shared on his Instagram story.
The U19 World Cup winner's story on Instagram came just hours after players from the Capitals' squad were isolated following another Covid-19 scare in their camp.
In the ongoing edition of IPL, the explosive opener has amassed 259 runs from six games, smashing a couple of half-centuries with the highest score of 61.
