IPL 2022: Washington to miss a few matches with split webbing

Mumbai: Sunrisers Hyderabad all-rounder Washington Sundar is likely to miss at least two IPL 2022 matches after suffering split webbing in his bowling hand.

During Hyderabad’s match against Gujarat Titans at the DY Patil Stadium here on Monday – which the Kane Williamson-led team eventually won by eight wickets – Washington got injured and could not complete his quota of four overs. His three wicket-less overs – two of which were in the powerplay – went for just 14 runs.

“Washington has torn the webbing in his right hand, between his thumb and first finger. We must monitor that over the next two to three days. Hopefully, it is not a significant blow. I imagine it would take probably a week to settle down,” SRH head coach Tom Moody said.

Meanwhile, the injury to Rahul Tripathi, which forced the SRH batter to retire hurt against GT, is not a serious on
