In the initial half of the Indian Premier League 2023, Washington Sundar played in every single of the Sunrisers Hyderabad’s seven games. After going without a wicket in the team’s first six games, Washington picked up three wickets in one over for a return of 3 for 24 in the most recent matchup versus the Delhi Capitals. In that match in Hyderabad, the 23-year-old also made a quick 15-ball 24*, which was his season-high total, but he was helpless to stop his team from suffering their third straight defeat.
With a 2-5 record win record, the 2016 champions are presently ninth in the standings. They are going to have to put together a comeback without the all-round balance that Washington gives them when they play the Capitals again on April 29 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. Washington Sundar’s team Sunrisers Hyderabad announced on Thursday that he would miss the rest of the IPL 2023 due to a hamstring injury. The cricketer from Tamil Nadu has suffered a run of unlucky injuries, and this is just the most recent.
How has Washington Sundar fared with injuries in the recent past?
Most recently, he suffered an injury to his left shoulder while fielding for Lancashire during a Royal London One-Day Cup match and was unable to travel to Zimbabwe. He also sustained a comparable hamstring injury in February of last year, preventing him from playing in home T20Is against the West Indies and causing him to miss a few of games for SRH due to a hand issue.
He sustained a finger injury while playing for a County team in a friendly match versus India at Chester le Street in 2021, just following his achievements in the Gabba Test versus Australia as well as the Ahmedabad Test versus England. He was unable to participate in the Tests vs England, the second quarter of the IPL, and the T20 World Cup in the UAE because of it.

For someone who plays not much cricket, it is quite baffling how he keeps getting injured again & again. I might be harsh on Sundar here, but he has spent more time at the NCA than on the field lately. With much lesser facilities, the veterans never got injured so frequently.
