India wicket-keeping batter KL Rahul has revealed that he was ahead of schedule in his injury recovery process and could’ve come back much before the 2023 Asia Cup. India is all set to face Pakistan in the Super-4 stage of the ongoing Asia Cup at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka.
Speaking in a video released by the BCCI, Rahul said he developed a small niggle during his recovery process which set him back, adding that he was ahead of schedule and could’ve returned much before the Asia Cup. Rahul picked up a thigh injury during IPL 2023 and had to undergo surgery, which ruled him out for several months.
“Unfortunately, in the recovery process, I developed a small niggle just before I could come back into the team, which was a big downer. I was actually I ahead a schedule, and I felt like I could come back much before the Asia Cup and give myself a lot of time and prepare myself really well,” said Rahul.
