With a few days left for the start of the IPL tournament, the Mumbai Indians team has received a big shock. Sri Lankan bowler Dilshan Madhushanka, bought for Rs 4.60 crore, is injured. This has raised doubts about his playing in the IPL tournament.
The Sri Lankan bowler has been ruled out of the ongoing ODI series against Bangladesh due to an injury. Dilshan Madhushanka was bought by Mumbai Indians for Rs 4.60 crore. Due to the injury, Madhushanka will now be working on rehabilitation. However, no reaction has been expressed from the Mumbai Indians team so far.
Dilshan Madhushanka was injured in the second match of the ODI series between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. His muscles were tense. So Madhushanka had to leave the field before the end of the match. Sri Lanka Cricket has said that Madhushanka will not be able to play in the next match.
Madhushanka’s injury is a big blow for Mumbai Indians. He was in form and bowled impressively many times. Madhushanka’s original price in the IPL auction was Rs 50 lakh. Mumbai Indians paid Rs 4.0 crore to get Madushanka in their team. This was going to be Madhushanka’s IPL debut season. But now there are doubts about his playing.
