India vs Australia: Prithvi Shaw Ruled Out Of Adelaide Test With Ligament Injury

Team India were dealt a massive blow on Friday when young batting star Prithvi Shaw was ruled out of the first Test against Australia in Adelaide starting December 6. Prithvi Shaw hurt his ankle while trying to take a catch against Cricket Australia XI and had to be carried off at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The 19-year-old appeared to have rolled his left ankle attempting a catch on the deep mid-wicket boundary. Prithvi Shaw, while attempting to catch a big hit from opener Max Bryant, landed awkwardly with his left ankle bending 90-degrees inwards underneath him, and he tumbled to the ground and over the rope.
"Shaw underwent scans this morning and the reports revealed a lateral ligament injury. Shaw will be unavailable for the First Test against Australia in Adelaide. He will undergo an intensive rehabilitation program to hasten the recovery and be available for selection at the earliest," BCCI said in a release

Mohammad Mithun and Shadman Islam, who made 76 on his Test debut, were the batsmen dismissed as the home side went to tea on 175 for 4.
