"He has been a key part of the squad for the season, hence we as well as Shivam are disappointed that his season has come to an end so soon.

We wish him a swift and complete return, and are sure he will be back fitter and stronger," the LSG statement read.

"A cricketer has to be mentally strong for this. If you have an injury like this, how do you come back and how do you take care of it. We have a very good team here," said Mavi in a video posted by LSG on social media.
