TimesofIndia.com in Mullanpur: Hardik Pandya is set to miss the upcoming three-ODI series against Afghanistan due to a leg sprain. It is understood that the premier all-rounder was at peak fitness and had been training hard at the BCCI Centre of Excellence since June 2. He was supposed to link up with the Shubman Gill-led squad in Dharamsala on June 11 but the late setback will keep him in Bengaluru for at least two more weeks.“There has been a very late setback. He sustained a low-grade, mild leg sprain causing some tenderness. It’s nothing long-term, but medical staff advised him to avoid any strain or weight-bearing for the next few days. Hardik will continue to stay in Bengaluru, consulting with CoE physios and trainers during his recovery phase,” a BCCI official tells TimesofIndia.com.More to follow…
