Trans-Tasman T20 Tri-Series 2018: Australia vs New Zealand- Final, 5 talking points

#3 Chris Lynn injures his shoulder. AGAIN!

Ever since Kolkata Knight Riders picked up the explosive Chris Lynn at the auctions earlier this year, the only query that has been doing the rounds is how long before Lynn injures the right shoulder of his again!

Earlier in the week, the batsman had rubbished all doubts by stating that his body was feeling the best that it has felt in a long time and just weeks before the IPL is to begin, fans back in Kolkata would have heaved a sigh of relief.

However, it all came to nought when Ross Taylor clipped away a fullish delivery by Stanlake to mid-wicket, where a diving Lynn tried to stop the ball. Soon, he was seen flinching that very shoulder and it was not long before it had been confirmed that he had dislocated his shoulder again.

The player, who was operated on that very hand last year, had admitted that another injury to the same shoulder could end his career. He had recently missed a few Big Bash League games due to a hamstring injury and also sat out of Australia’s ODI series against England due to an injury in the calf muscle.

Here’s wishing the player a speedy recovery!
