Jemimah Rodrigues' Viral Fever Sidelines Star from Australia's ODI Series
India's batting sensation Jemimah Rodrigues will miss the remaining two ODIs against Australia due to a viral fever. Tejal Hasabnis has been named as her replacement. The BCCI remains hopeful for Rodrigues' recovery before the Women's World Cup starting September 30.
Jemimah Rodrigues, one of India's promising batters, has been ruled out of the final two One Day Internationals against Australia owing to a viral fever. The news was announced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Wednesday.
The Women's Selection Committee promptly announced Tejal Hasabnis as a replacement in the national squad. This change comes as India strategizes for its ongoing series against the formidable Australian team.
Despite the setback, the BCCI remains optimistic that Rodrigues will make a full recovery in time for the Women's World Cup, slated to commence on September 30. Her absence is expected to shuffle the batting dynamics for the upcoming matches.
