Boxing Day Test: Ahead of the Boxing Day Test against Australia, India skipper Rohit Sharma and opener KL Rahul suffered injury scares during the side’s practice session at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Sunday.

While facing throwdowns, Rohit took a painful blow on the side of his left knee. Though he tried to continue his practice session, Rohit was forced to seek medical attention and was seen sitting on a chair, with his left knee being nursed by an ice pack for almost 25 minutes.

If that wasn’t enough, Rahul also got hit on his right hand in the training session and needed immediate medical attention. There has been no official statement from the BCCI or the Indian team about the status of Rohit and Rahul after suffering injury scares.
