The problem of injury is continuously coming to the fore in IPL 2024. Many players are out due to injuries and many are out in the middle of the season. There is also suspense on the fitness of some. Lucknow captain KL Rahul may not be completely fit and there are reports of suspense on his fitness. Now the franchise has suffered a big blow. Lucknow Super Giants bowler Shivam Mavi is now out of the entire IPL 17 season. Shivam is out of this season due to injury.
Mavi shared the video
Lucknow Super Giants have shared a video on their X handle in which Mavi is reacting after being ruled out of the season. The franchise also wrote a message for him, saying, Shivam, you come back stronger and we are with you in this journey. It is noteworthy that Shivam Mavi was signed by Lucknow for Rs 6.4 crore. Shivam was a part of Gujarat Titans last year but did not play a single match. He has been out of IPL continuously for the last few years.
What did Shivam Mavi say?
“I will miss him a lot,” Shivam Mavi said in a Lucknow Super Giants video on being ruled out for the entire season. I came back after the injury and thought of playing some matches for my team. But unfortunately due to injury I had to leave. A cricketer needs to be mentally strong to know how to bounce back from such an injury. How can you be right with this? All these questions come to mind.
