Mumbai's star batter Jemimah Rodrigues has officially declared herself fully fit and ready to return to competitive cricket. The top-order Indian women's team player had been sidelined since early August due to a hamstring injury sustained while playing for Southern Brave in 'The Hundred' tournament in England.
Her injury had unfortunately ruled her out of crucial tournaments, including the T20 Asia Cup in the UAE and the Asian Games in Japan, following advice from the BCCI medical team. She also missed the recent limited-overs series against Zimbabwe at home.
Expressing her relief and excitement on Instagram, the 26-year-old shared, 'Life update: I've been declared fit (hamstring). After three months of rehab, I can't wait to get back on the field.' Her declaration comes as a significant boost for the Indian women's cricket team, which is set to tour South Africa for a multi-format series in December.
Before her potential international comeback, Rodrigues is also expected to feature for Mumbai in the ongoing Senior Women's T20 Trophy, providing her an opportunity to regain match fitness and form. Her return will add much-needed strength and experience to the team's batting lineup as they prepare for upcoming international challenges.
