He overlooked the injury to continue batting before getting dismissed for 70 runs. The medical team of the BCCI confirmed that India batsman Rohit Sharma underwent a surgery on his right thigh on Friday, November 11, 2016 in London. The procedure was successful and Rohit will be discharged from the hospital in the next 24 hours. BCCI medical team is constantly monitoring his treatment and will oversee his recovery, towards becoming match fit. Rohit later posted a picture of him after the surgery on his twitter handle. He tweeted, “All went well. Thank you for your good wishes. Can’t wait to be back at it.” The stylish batsman is likely to be out of action for 10-12 weeks, which means he will not be able to make a comeback even for the series against Australia which begins on February 23. The injury forced the selectors to not pick him for the Indian test side that is playing in the ongoing test series. He had himself said that he could be out of action for at least three months if a surgery happens.
