India batter Jemimah Rodrigues has announced that she has recovered from the hamstring injury that had kept her sidelined since August.

Rodrigues sustained a right hamstring injury on August 3 while representing Southern Brave in The Hundred in Cardiff. Subsequent assessments by the BCCI medical team revealed a high-grade tear, ruling her out of the Womens T20 Asia Cup in the UAE and the Asian Games in Japan, both of which India went on to win.

The 25-year-old also missed Indias recently concluded home series against Zimbabwe, where the hosts registered comprehensive 3-0 clean sweeps in both the ODI and T20I formats.

Taking to Instagram on Friday, Rodrigues shared an encouraging update on her recovery, revealing that her hamstring had been given the all-clear following three months of rehabilitation.

Hamstring has been declared fit. After 3 months of rehab. Now I cant wait to get going, her caption said.

Rodrigues is Indias fourth-highest run-scorer in womens T20Is, having amassed 2,824 runs at a strike rate of 119. A key member of the Indian middle order, she has been an important contributor across formats.

Her last international appearance came during Indias defeat to Australia at the ICC Womens T20 World Cup in England last June.

The right-handed batter will now be eyeing a return to international action during Indias upcoming multi-format tour of South Africa in December. The tour will comprise a one-off Test, three ODIs and three T20Is. (ANI)
