The latest injury has mounted her woes in recent years. A fractured finger ruled her out of the 2024 Women's T20 World Cup, before she was sidelined by shin splints in both legs and later a stress reaction in her wrist. The string of setbacks kept her away from competitive cricket for nearly a year.
She has been replaced by her RCB teammate Prema Rawat who is a legspinner.
24-year-old Prema has played six Women's Premier League matches for RCB in the last two seasons and picked three wickets. She is yet to make her India debut.
India have enjoyed a winning start in the World Cup beating rivals Pakistan and Netherlands in the first two games. The Harmanpreet Kaur-led side will next play South Africa on Sunday.
