Mumbai: Washington Sundar may not be part of the Indian team for the series of two tests that will come from New Zealand at home, but he is still in camps for test specialists at the MCA BKC facility here.
Off-spinning allrounder still recovered from a finger injury supported in July, during a training match ahead of the test series in England.
Since then, Sundar has missed a lot of cricket – tests in the UK, the T20 World Cup, and then the house series against New Zealand.
On Monday, the left hander took a setback, even though he was not bat or a bowl.
“The voters hope he will be fit for the first test in South Africa, which began on December 17 in Johannesburg.
He is an important gear on the wheel, especially when he is very well and adds strength with a lower order.
The team misses him with Bad at the T20 World Cup, “said a source to Toi.
While he has established himself as a clever white ball bowler, Sundar has scored 265 running in four tests@66.25, including three years and fifties, and took six Wickets @ 49.83 to show how valuable he was in cricket.
On Tuesday, a substitute for Sundar in a two-test series against New Zealand, Jayant Yadav – which made a comeback into the Indian team after five years – Betincul for a long time.
