LUCKNOW, India : India vice-captain Hardik Pandya will miss their World Cup match with England as he continues to recover from a left ankle injury so the hosts may stick with his replacement Suryakumar Yadav, batsman KL Rahul said on Saturday.
All-rounder Pandya hurt his ankle while looking to stop a shot with his leg off his own bowling in India's seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh in Pune. He then missed the win over New Zealand where Suryakumar was run out for two.
"Surya will probably get his chance and we know what he can do. So our confidence is in Surya till Hardik comes back."
