Rohit Sharma Provides Update On Axar Patel, Shreyas Iyer Ahead Of Australia ODIs
Following their victory in the Asia Cup 2023, India captain Rohit Sharma revealed on Sunday that batter Shreyas Iyer is nearing full fitness, rating him as "99 per cent" match-ready, signalling his probable availability for upcoming matches. However, the captain anticipates that Axar Patel will be absent for the first two ODIs against Australia later this month. Iyer was featured in just one game of the Asia Cup -against Pakistan- and then missed out after suffering back spasms. Even though Iyer was injured for a large portion of the Asia Cup, he has accomplished most of the goals the team management had set for him as he recovered and tried to demonstrate his match fitness for the World Cup, which is now less than three weeks away.
