Hardik Pandya is far from being declared fit for any kind of competitive matches. Since the conclusion of the Indian Premier League 2026 (IPL 2026), the star pace-bowling all-rounder has been in Bengaluru for the rehabilitation process at the BCCI's Center of Excellence (CoE).

According to the latest updates, Pandya is still not fit to make his return soon to the India National Cricket Team, which is a massive setback for the team as the Men in Blue are currently preparing for the 2027 ODI World Cup.

Latest updates on Hardik Pandya's fresh injury

Without Pandya in the team, the team management needs to continue the experiments in the pace bowling department.

Abhishek Tripathi, a Dainik Jagran reporter, previously claimed through his 'X' post that Hardik Pandya has injured himself for the second time during the rehabilitation period. In his latest 'X' post, Tripathi further claimed, "Hardik has a symptomatic right tibial bone stress response with no structural bone damage or established stress fracture."
