According to latest reports, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma could potentially miss the upcoming match of the ICC Champions Trophy against New Zealand on 2 March, Sunday. It has been understood that Rohit Sharma missed the net practice on Wednesday as he was not seen participating with the rest of the squad who participated in warm-ups like football and running at the ICC Academy. The charismatic leader refrained from any strenuous activity. 

Rohit's Injury Woes

Earlier, Rohit unfortunately suffered a hamstring injury during the game against Pakistan but had brushed aside any concerns during the post-match presentation. According to the report, the 37-year-old batter was seen jogging lightly under the close watch of India's Strength & Conditioning coach Soham Desai.

His movements seemed restricted, raising eyebrows over a possible injury. The report by Times Of India further stated that Rohit did not take part in any throw-downs and only shadow batted.
