Vastrakar Ruled Out for Fortnight as Hamstring Injury Halts WPL Campaign

Pooja Vastrakar has been sidelined for around two weeks after sustaining a hamstring injury, dealing a blow to her team’s plans in the Women's Premier League. The all-rounder picked up the injury during recent action and will now undergo rehabilitation before being reassessed.

Vastrakar’s absence is a significant setback given her ability to influence games with both bat and ball. Known for her power-hitting and sharp spells at the death, she provides crucial balance to any XI. Team management is expected to take a cautious approach, prioritising recovery over a rushed return with a busy season ahead.

In the meantime, the injury opens the door for others to step up and fill the all-rounder’s role. For Vastrakar, the focus shifts to regaining full fitness, with hopes of rejoining the squad once the initial two-week window passes and medical clearance is received.
