Injury concern for India's K.L. Rahul ahead of Boxing Day Test at MCG, team management silent on severity.
India opener K.L. Rahul got hit on his hand while batting at the nets on Saturday (December 21, 2024) and was promptly attended to by the visiting team's physio ahead of the fourth Test against Australia.
Rahul was hit on his right hand and was seen in some discomfort at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, which will host the Boxing Day Test from December 26 with the five-match series levelled at 1-1.
There is no clarity on the extent of injury and the team management has also not issued any statement on why he had sought medical attention.
In a video that surfaced on social media, Rahul was seen holding the right hand while receiving treatment.

Rahul has been the team's in-form batter in the ongoing tour, scoring 235 runs from six innings at an impressive average of 47.
The elegant right-hander has so far struck two half-centuries and is set to open the batting alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal in the fourth Test.

On November 30, a team of officials from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Water Resources Department (WRD) and Chennai Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (CMWSSB) conducted a joint inspection of a rainwater vent below the Chennai Bypass Road in Thiruneermalai. This marks the second time NHAI and WRD have carried out an inspection following a request being made by residents. They want NHAI to widen the vent located below the Bypass Road to facilitate rainwater drainage from ‘Nattukalvai’. The office bearers of the Federation of Welfare Associations accompanied the officials.
