Ruturaj Gaikwad has been ruled out of the two-Test series against South Africa, while Virat Kohli had to miss the three-day intra-squad game currently underway in Pretoria. According to sources within the BCCI, the young opener has not recovered from a finger injury. He has been released by the Indian team management in South Africa.

Kohli left for Mumbai about three days ago after obtaining permission from the team management and the BCCI to skip the three-day practice game in which Indian players are currently involved in Pretoria. Kohli is expected to return on Friday (December 22).

He has been constantly travelling with the Indian team, but gets a game only when one or more of the regulars are unavailable. This toil and uncertainty has brought ‘mental fatigue’, which prompted wicketkeeper-batsman Ishan Kishan to opt out of the Test series against South Africa starting on Tuesday.

The Indian Express understands that Kishan requested the Indian team management last week in South Africa to let him take a break as he had been travelling non-stop for the past one year. The team management spoke to the selectors who agreed to Kishan’s request.

“He informed the team management that he is having mental fatigue and wants a break from cricket for some time. Everyone agreed to it,” a source confirmed to this paper.
