Team India pacer T Natarajan who made his name with some great performances in the recent Test series in Australia could not make it to the 20-member squad that will be leaving for the UK for the World Test Championship final against New Zealand followed by a five-match Test series against England.
The left-arm quick was ruled out of the Indian Premier League (IPL) tournament due to an injury before the suspension of the league altogether owing to a spike in COVID-19 cases across the country.
As a lot of Team India cricketers got their first dose of the vaccine and urged their fans to do the same as soon as possible, the 30-year-old who recently got vaccinated thanked all the healthcare workers for putting themselves at risk.
England batsmen don't read the ball from my hand, says India's Akshar Patel
“Am so grateful to get my #Vaccine this morning. A million thanks to our incredible health care workers who have put themselves at risk for our people #LetsGetVaccinated #Jabbed,” Natarajan wrote on Twitter along with a photo of him getting jabbed.

With 20 wickets to his name and superb yorker bowling ability that he showcased in the IPL, the fast bowler from a small town in Tamil Nadu made it to the Indian team. Not only did he just make it to the Indian squad but also debuted against Australia and picked 3 wickets at The Gabba.
