The year 2022 hasn't been a good one for Ravindra Jadeja, in terms of injuries. While the all-rounder has become a really crucial player for India, with memorable knocks against England, and Pakistan most recently, in the Asia Cup, however, he is set to be ruled out through injury for an 'indefinite period'.
As per a report from PTI, Jadeja will undergo a surgery on his right knee, which will see him miss the upcoming T20I World Cup 2022. The 33-year-old had earlier suffered a similar issue, which had ruled him out of India's tour of the West Indies in July.
Given his recent dynamism with the bat, Jadeja will be a huge miss for India, as he not only contributes with the ball as well, but he is one of the best fielders in the world.

Team India are already without the services of Jasprit Bumrah and Harshal Patel, both of whom were ruled out of Asia Cup 2022, through their respective injuries.
The Indian pace-duo has been undergoing rehab at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru and it is expected that they will both return in time for the T20I World Cup. The same, however, cannot be said for Jadeja, who could miss as many as six months if his injury turns out to be an Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).
