Rishabh Pant of Delhi has been sidelined with a side strain, which he suffered during net practice before the first ODI against New Zealand in Baroda on January 11.

According to TOI, Yashasvi Jaiswal of Mumbai recently underwent an endoscopy after suffering from stomach pain. He could be available for the Ranji Trophy quarter-final.

“It’s a problem which has persisted with him since he was hospitalised after Mumbai’s last game in the Syed Mushtaq Ali T20 Trophy in Pune, where he was afflicted by a severe bout of food poisoning,” a source informed TOI.
