New Delhi, August 3(Press Ki Taquat)<\/p>\n

Senior batter KL Rahul in all likelihood will miss the Asia Cup in Sri Lanka as he will take more time to recover from his hamstring injury, while it could be a touch and go for another star Shreyas Iyer as far as his participation in the World Cup is concerned.<\/p>\n

Rahul had undergone a thigh surgery, while Iyer had a surgery on his lower back to cure stress fracture.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn case of Iyer, he has also started skills training but World Cup for him will be touch and go if Indian management thinks of putting a 100 percent fit Iyer back on the park. T20 is an easier vehicle for comeback unlike 50-over cricket. We are keeping fingers crossed,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n

Rahul has already started his keeping drills. But keeping for 50 overs with recovering hamstring will be a bit too much, considering India\u2019s Asia Cup campaign starts early next month.<\/p>\n

Rahul\u2019s fitness is very important in larger context as he will also bat at No.5 and is expected to play a big role in the middle overs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
