These days the ever-increasing number of injured players in Team India is a matter of concern. But captain Rohit Sharma does not think that any player of the Indian team will withdraw from the Indian Premier League (IPL) matches starting March 31 under workload management.

From Jasprit Bumrah to Shreyas Iyer, the number of injured players of Team India is increasing day by day. Rohit said that before the ODI World Cup to be held in October-November, the responsibility of managing the workload will be on the IPL franchise owners and the players themselves.

After losing the third and final ODI by 21 runs at the hands of Australia and losing the series by 1-2, Rohit said:

“I mean, it’s all up to the franchises now. The franchises own them [the players] now, so we’ve given some indications or some kind of borderline kind of thing to the teams. But at the end of the day it’s up to the franchise and, most importantly it’s the players you know, they have to take care of their own body.

“They [players] are all adults. So they have to look after their body and just if they feel that it’s getting a little too much, they can always talk about it and have a break in one or two games. I doubt [if] that will happen but,” Rohit added.

Rohit Sharma On Frequent Injuries To Star Players:

Speaking about the frequent injuries to star players, Rohit Sharma said that it is concerning because the team’s balance and quality are being affected by the absence of their first-choice players. However, he added that injuries are a fact of life in sports and that taking breaks and rest between series may be the best course of action.

“Look, yeah, it is concerning because … we are missing the players who are actually playing XI players, you know … they regularly play in the playing XI,” Rohit said. “But honestly, everyone’s trying their best to get everyone on the path, we’ve been focusing a lot on management of the players, which is why you keep seeing we have to rest certain players at a certain point in time.

“Obviously when you play so much cricket injuries are bound to happen. So not looking too much into it… what’s available to you, what’s in your hand, you can control that, and we are just trying to control all of that.
“Players are frustrated as well. They want to play they don’t want to miss out. So yeah, I mean it is a little sad, but at the end of the day, you cannot really do too much. I can see, and I can vouch for it, that the people working behind the scenes are working really hard with all these layers and freakish injury can happen at any point in time, like Shreyas [Iyer] was the best example. He was sitting the whole day and he just went to take a knock. And you know the injury happened to him. And there’s nothing you could do about it, and I mean, the only thing we can keep in mind is managing players and giving them enough breaks. And I think from our side we’re doing that,” he further added.
