Honorary Secretary Jay Shah: India captain Hardik Pandya is likely to miss the upcoming three-match T20I series against Afghanistan, starting from January 11, 2024, because of an ankle injury, a report claimed on Saturday.

Pandya, who is currently undergoing rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru for an ankle injury suffered during India's match against Bangladesh in the ODI World Cup, might not be able to recover on time and is likely to miss the T20I series against Afghanistan, the NDTV reported.

"There is no update on Hardik's fitness status as of now and one can say there remains a big question mark on him being available before the end of IPL," a BCCI source said.
