Cricket World Cup: Afghanistan have kept their unlikely finals hopes alive after defeating the Netherlands by 7 wickets.
Afghanistan keep fairytale run alive | 01:29Star India all-rounder Hardik Pandya has been ruled out of the remainder of the World Cup in a giant blow to the team’s hopes of going all the way.
India are so far unbeaten and sit in the top two ahead of a massive match-up with South Africa on Sunday. But they’ll be without the services of 30-year-old vice-captain Pandya, who rolled his left ankle while bowling against Bangladesh last month and has not recovered. India has now replaced the injured star with rookie quick Prasidh Krishna, who has played just 19 white-ball games for his country with 33 wickets.
The right-arm paceman is a handy back-up to the likes of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Shami and Mohammed Siraj in India’s pace ranks, but appears unlikely to break into the first team unless injury strikes.Watch every match of The ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup Live with no ad breaks in play on Kayo Sports.
