Written by Abhishek Patil

India batting star KL Rahul underwent successful surgery for sports hernia in Germany and will take at least a couple of months for full recovery before he can start playing again. Rahul was ruled out from the recently concluded home T20I series against South Africa due fitness issues, where he was set to captain India.

He shared a post on Twitter on Wednesday confirming about his successful surgery and that he’s doing well.

“Hello everyone. It’s been a tough couple of weeks but the surgery was successful. I’m healing and recovering well. My road to recovery has begun. Thank you for your messages and prayers. See you soon,” Rahul wrote alongside his picture.

The 30-year-old has been troubled by lower abdominal concerns including groin strains and hamstring injuries. Upon his return to India, the India vice-captain is expected to bein his rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru where he’ll be monitored by its Sports Science team headed by Nitin Patel.
