With only 30 days till the Cricket World Cup 2023 squad submission deadline, the injury issue is far from over. With only 30 days until the ICC World Cup squad to be submitted, India is plagued by ailments. KL Rahul should be fit for the Asia Cup, but Shreyas Iyer is running out of time. This has caused problems for Rohit Sharma and Rahul Dravid, who barely have a month to choose the Indian team.
The ICC has established September 5 as the deadline for submission. Despite the fact that the deadline for sending in the team is August 29, each team will be given an extra week during the Support period. As a result, the deadline for sending in teams is September 5.
ICC on WC Squad Submission Deadline
“At our events, the limit for sending in the first team is 30 days before the support periods begin.” The support times start one week before the events. Before the support period begins, adjustments can be made without approval, but once the support period begins, the Event Technical Committee must approve replacements,” the ICC told Crichistory.in.
India’s accident situation is frightening. The only piece of good news is that Jasprit Bumrah has returned. The top bowler will make his international debut as captain of his team in a three-match T20I series against Ireland. However, the BCCI is unsure what would happen to the other two big talents.
KL Despite his knee injury, Rahul should be ready for the Asia Cup. Shreyas Iyer, on the other hand, is racing against the clock to be fit for the Asia Cup. They are now improving in the National Cricket Academy. They will attend the Asia Cup 2023 camp at NCA from August 24th to August 29th.
“They’ll both be at camp.” Even if KL or Shreyas aren’t fully recovered, they are still vital to the team. “They’ll both be at camp,” a top BCCI source confirmed.

Where does India stand in the World Cup 2023 injury crisis?
Jasprit Bumrah
The race’s fastest horse is ready to run. Bumrah has been selected to captain India’s second-string team in a three-match T20I series against Ireland.
KL Rahul
The wicket-keeper batsman has improved, but he is not yet ready to join India for the Ireland series. He is still improving at the NCA and should be ready for the Asia Cup.
Shreyas Iyer
According to multiple sources, Iyer’s health is currently in poor condition. Because the middle-order pitcher is not on the Ireland team, he must travel quickly to the Asia Cup. Iyer began hitting at the NCA about a month ago. He will also be in attendance at the NCA Camp for the Asia Cup 2023.
Rishabh Pant
Despite making significant progress following his near-fatal car accident in December, the young wicketkeeper batter is still a long way from being totally fit. He’ll need another 6-7 months to get back into form.
