IPL 2017: 5 Indian players who are on the injured list

#2 KL Rahul

Rahul’s absence will jolt the RCB

The flamboyant right-hander emerged as one of the biggest gains for India after the Australian series and his consistency at the top of the order was a soothing sight for Indian fans. However, he has been ruled out of the IPL owing to a shoulder injury which kept nagging him right through the series.

Although he played the series in pain, the Karnataka batter will now head to London to undergo a surgery, and his availability comes a big set back to the Royal Challengers Bangalore as they have lost not only a reliable top order batsman but have lost a wicket-keeping option.
