India all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is on the road to recovery after getting injured during the first T20I against Australia at Canberra. Jadeja was hit on the head while playing a shot in the last over bowled by Mitchell Starc.
The all-rounder was replaced by Yuzvendra Chahal in the match and Shardul Thakur for the series. He shared a video on Twitter hitting the gym and getting ready to take the field.
"Recovery going well #trainingmode.", he wrote on Twitter while posting the clip.
