He was out of any cricketing action since IPL and got an opportunity to play the Royal London ODD cup in England for Lancashire county team but got injured again. He was selected for the 3 match ODI series against Zimbabwe that is set to start of 18^th of August but the off spinner has been ruled out again and will have to go to NCA for rehabilitation where he was since IPL. Shahbaz Ahmed has been named as the replacement for Washington Sundar.

Fastest 100 for India in each format

Ravichandran Ashwin who had a brilliant IPL came into the side in the absence of Washington Sundar and has grabbed the opportunity with both the hands. He is the only off spinner at the moment for India and India need to groom more such type of bowlers as Ravichandran Ashwin is already 35 years old. With Washington Sundar being injury prone, the NCA chief VVS Laxman has job on his hands.
