Pandya, who is at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru, will have to wait a few more days for the medical team to fully recover. The player is expected to join the Indian team either in Mumbai or Kolkata. It is reported that the Indian team management is not interested in rushing him into the team until he recovers from his injury.
The management expects him to be fully fit for the final two matches of the preliminary round of the World Cup. With the Indian team going on a winning streak in this World Cup, the team management wants a fully fit Pandya for the semi-finals.
Pandya missed the match once morest New Zealand in Dharamsala on 22 October. An expert doctor from England has been brought to the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru to treat the star. Pandya was earlier expected to join the Indian team in Lucknow.

The all-rounder was taken for a scan during the match. He did not play in that match. BCCI Secretary Jai Shah said in a statement that Hardik Pandya is under the observation of the BCCI medical team.
