Hardik was injured against Bangladesh
Talking about Hardik, he was eliminated from the competition following an ankle injury he sustained during the World Cup encounter against Bangladesh in Pune. When Hardik attempted to use his leg to stop the ball in the follow through, he got hurt. But then he stumbled and went on his knees. His bowed ankle felt the weight of his torso. After this, the all-rounder was required to leave the field right away and was taken for scans.
