After JP Duminy,Injured Quinton De Kock ruled out of IPL 2017

Another setback for Delhi Daredevils (DD) as South African wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton De Kock has been ruled out of the 2017 IPL. This is after his teammate JP Duminy chose not to play in the current edition of the IPL. But for De Kock, he is advised rest to nurse his finger injury by the South African team management ahead of the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy and the subsequent tour of England.

It was said that De Kock was doubtful of playing in the third Test against New Zealand and the IPL after suffering tendon damage in his right index finger. But he will now play the third and final Test only after passing fitness Test a day before the start of the match. While speaking to the media on the eve of the match, South African skipper Faf du Plessis ruled out the possibility of resting De Kock ahead of the crucial match.

South African team manager, Mohammad Moosajee, who is also a doctor confirmed that De Kock won’t be a part of the IPL 2017 as he needs at least four to six weeks to recover from the injury. Dr.Moosajee further added that being a wicket-keeper, whenever De Kock catches the ball, the stress is felt in the area which is troubling De Kock  and if he doesn’t rest his fingers, there are chances of aggravating the injury, which could see him miss the Champions Trophy and the England tour. Hence, he will miss the IPL to recover from his injury which usually takes four to six weeks to get back to normal.

This seems another tough task for DD franchise to look for a suitable replacement, a wicket-keeper batsman.
