Once rahul

ODI World Cup: India’s left-arm spin all-rounder Axar Patel has admitted that he was thinking about missing out on playing in the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup on home soil due to a left quadriceps injury.

Axar, 29, was a late omission from the World Cup squad due to the injury suffered in the Asia Cup, with Ravichandran Ashwin named his replacement.

“You are bound to be (disappointed). The World Cup was in India, but that injury happened. For the first few days, I was thinking about it, not being able to play due to injury, especially when the team was doing well.”
