India's Shikhar Dhawan is set to find on Tuesday the dimension of thumb hurt that undermines the opening batsman's consistent endeavor at the World Cup.
Dhawan drove India to their second in a row accomplishment of the 50-over test with a 109-ball 117 against choice victors Australia at the Oval on Sunday at any rate persisted through a shot to the opposite side thumb every single through hey innings.
The left-gave batsman persevered through the harm due to a horrendous leave behind Australia paceman Nathan Coulter-Nile yet continued to complete his seventeenth one-day all inclusive century.
Dhawan, regardless, had no further impact in the match after his ejection, with substitute Ravindra Jadeja taking the field in his place as India effectively protected their total of 352 for five to complete a 36-run triumph.
The Virat Kohli-drove side are confronting New Zealand in Nottingham on Thursday before taking on primary adversaries Pakistan in the gem match of the 10-bunch round-robin social event arrange in Manchester on Sunday.
Kohli and Co would've desperately believed that he didn't develop a split and it's a kind of swelling that should recover in the accompanying couple of days, anyway that wasn't the circumstance. Dhawan has been a huge segment of the Indian batting lineup for quite a while now. The veteran was encountering a poor continued running of structure, anyway the ton against the Aussies would've given him a wreck of assurance.
He floundered in the warmups against the Black Caps and Bangladesh, getting out for two and one separately. By then versus the Proteas, the left-hander got out for only eight. Nevertheless, he offered some sort of reparation in the past experience. To the degree the prospective game is concerned, India would look strike back for their obliteration in the preparation game. For the present, India would be hysterical to find Dhawan's substitution.
Shikhar Dhawan's nonappearance will put the Indian gathering the board under two challenges. At first, it needs to find an elective opener which could be KL Rahul yet disturbing of the praised opening pair of Dhawan and Rohit Sharma won't be a bright thing to happen.
Likewise, if Rahul goes up the solicitation, India ought to find a No.4, an issue that had kept them theorizing all through. Rahul offered a response for the No.4 issue by scoring a hundred against Bangladesh in a warm-up game yet his headway could now bring into picture any similarity to Vijay Shankar or Dinesh Karthik.
