In match No. 43 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, the Indian opener, and LSG skipper sustained an injury while fielding for the Super Giants.

Rahul only fielded three pitches against RCB, and the star batter even failed to score. After RCB recorded a renowned win over LSG, Rahul’s India partners Kohli and Siraj were seen having a gentle discussion with the injured hitter. The noteworthy acts that Kohli and Siraj performed for Rahul have also attracted the attention of internet users.

Pacer Unadkat suffered a shoulder injury prior to the IPL 2023 match, while former India vice-captain Rahul fell in the first powerplay. India’s world-class squad for the ICC World Test Championship final against Australia recently included Rahul and Unadkat.
Krunal Pandya, an all-rounder who skippered LSG in Rahul’s absence, has disclosed that the injured India opener has pulled his hip flexor muscle. It is unfortunate. I think Rahul pulled his hip flexor. I am unaware of its severity. At the post-match presentation, Pandya stated, “The medical team will evaluate it.”
