Mumbai: Ravindra Jadeja has been ruled out of the remainder of the Asia Cup 2022 with an injury to his right knee.
The All-India Senior Selection Committee on Friday has named Axar Patel as the replacement for Ravindra Jadeja, earlier named as one of the standbys in the squad and will join the team in Dubai soon.
“Ravindra Jadeja sustained a right knee injury and is ruled out of the tournament. He is currently under the supervision of the BCCI medical team,” BCCI said in a statement on Friday.
