Indian bowler Jaydev Unadkat is fully recovered from his injury in time for the World Test Championship final, which will be played between India and Australia at Oval in London beginning June 7.
On a trip to London on Sunday, May 28, the left-arm seamer giggled as he posed for a photo in an all black attire.
For those who are unaware, the Lucknow Super Giants pacer was recently ruled out of the IPL 2023. This occurred after he fell awkwardly to the ground after his foot became entangled in the side net while bowling in the nets.
Jaydev Unadkat sought medical advice from the BCCI and had scans before proceeding to the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru for rehabilitation in order to restore his fitness.
After a breakout season for winners Saurashtra in the 2022 Ranji Trophy, Unadkat will now attempt to make an impact for Team India. He took 26 wickets in four games at a strike rate of 13.88 in Ranji Trophy.
The left arm bowler also took the most wickets in the 2022 Vijay Hazare Trophy, taking 19 wickets in 10 games. Jaydev Unadkat went wicketless in his 3 games for LSG. His last Test for India was against Bangladesh at Mirpur, where he took 3 wickets.
