Kamlesh Jain Notice Period: After continuous injuries to players in the Indian cricket team in the last few months, BCCI is now preparing to make major changes in its medical and sports science system. According to the report, the tenure of Team India’s senior physio Kamlesh Jain can be terminated and he is currently on notice period. In the last six to eight months, the team’s plans have been affected due to injuries to many important players.
The concern of the selectors and head coach Gautam Gambhir has also increased regarding this. During this period, many big players had to face fitness related problems. Washington Sundar suffered a side strain after suffering from a problem in his left lower rib area and was ruled out of the remaining matches of the series. After this, Harshit Rana was out of the T20 World Cup due to a serious knee injury. Hardik Pandya also suffered from quadriceps strain after the T20 World Cup final, due to which he had to stay away from the field for a long time. Why were questions raised on Kamlesh Jain? A BCCI source told PTI that “Kamlesh is on notice period” and the players of the Asian Games team are included in the T20 series against Afghanistan, so the physio and strength and conditioning coach will go to Japan. Due to continuous injuries, questions are being raised on the role of the sports science department of the team.
Nitish Kumar Reddy also injured his left quadriceps during the home ODI series against Afghanistan and was ruled out of the subsequent series. Bumrah’s return, Morne Morkel also out of the team. Jasprit Bumrah has recovered from a knee injury and has completed the necessary return-to-play process. He will start team training with Nitish Kumar Reddy in New Delhi from Friday. At the same time, fast bowling coach Morne Morkel was not seen in Thursday’s practice session. According to BCCI, his work visa had expired, so he had to return to South Africa to renew his visa. It is expected that he will join the team in the next few days and help in the success of the team.
