KL First impressions indicate that Rahul's injury is extremely serious, and the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has seized complete control of his situation. His continued participation would be decided by the BCCI, or more appropriately by the medical staff of the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru, according to BCCI and Lucknow Super Giants sources who spoke to Cricbuzz.
The LSG skipper will not be participating in the game against Chennai Super Kings on Wednesday afternoon, although he is still in Lucknow with the squad. The team's captain against CSK will be Krunal Pandya, who took over when Rahul injured his hamstring while pursuing the ball during Royal Challengers Bangalore's innings on Monday night.
Since Rahul is a contracted player, it makes sense that the BCCI and NCA would take over the case. He is also in the World Test Championship (WTC) final squad next month, which explains the BCCI and NCA medical team's immediate intervention. According to franchise sources, Rahul and LSG will now follow the advice from the NCA.
Cricbuzz is aware that Rahul has swelling and is still writhing in pain. The NCA and BCCI medical teams will conduct scans, and the severity of Rahul's injury will be determined by the scan results. He will probably miss a few games right now, and it wouldn't surprise me if he misses most of LSG's remaining games.
They still have five league games left, and if they make it to the final, they could play up to three more. It depends on Rahul's recovery whether or not he plays in any of those matches, although hamstring injuries are known to take longer than most people anticipate.
After getting hurt, LSG's opening batsman Rahul entered the game as the No. 11 batter and was unable to score even a single run. He didn't make a run despite facing three balls. The brief time he spent at the crease showed that he was in pain. On Wednesday, the LSG will be able to provide additional information about Rahul's injury status, according to a representative.
