IPL 2022: 5 key Indian players who are injured

4. Washington Sundar

Sunrisers Hyderabad all-rounder, sustained another injury to his already wounded bowling hand, in a match against CSK on May 1. SRH head coach Tom Moody confirmed that after the match. Before making his comeback against Gujarat Titans, the all-rounder had to sit out three games owing to split webbing in his bowling hand.

The event occurred in Marco Jansen’s fourth over when Sundar made a diving effort to rescue a boundary at a deep square leg. Sundar left the field immediately after the incident and didn’t bowl a single delivery in that game. He did come down to bat, but he barely stayed in the middle for two deliveries.

In the 15th edition of Indian Premier League (IPL) Sunrisers Hyderabad’s star performer Washington Sundar has only managed to play six matches. He has managed to pick four wickets for his home team with an average of 36 and an economy rate of eight. He also scored a stunning half-century against Rajasthan Royals. Washington Sundar’s injuries have been a source of frustration. Due to an injury, he missed the entire second leg of the IPL 2021 and the entire T20 World Cup. Sundar was also forced to withdraw from the T20I series against the West Indies earlier this year owing to a hamstring ailment.
