NEW DELHI: Rajasthan Royals batsman Dhruv Jurel on Thursday limped off the field with a suspected hamstring injury during the IPL 2024 match against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad.
The incident occurred on the last ball of the ninth over when Sunrisers Hyderabad’s opener Travis Head hit a shot off leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, who is part of India’s 15-member T20 World Cup squad, towards deep mid-wicket.
Dhruv Jurel, positioned near the boundary, sprinted to stop the ball but ended up straining his hamstring.
Jurel appeared to be in pain and was subsequently taken off the field.
