VVS Laxman has ended his silence on a prominent India cricketer's repeated injury setbacks. The former batsman confirmed that the mental well-being of players undergoing rehabilitation is managed by the Centre of Excellence (COE).
Laxman's comments come amid growing concern over the player's fitness, though he did not specifically name the athlete. The COE is responsible for overseeing both the physical and psychological recovery of injured cricketers.
The narrative around this issue has focused solely on physical recovery, ignoring the mental toll repeated injuries take. Fans and pundits alike have speculated endlessly about the unnamed player's career, but the actual work, including mental health support at the COE, remains underreported. Will the BCCI now release more details on the player's specific rehab timeline to curb the rumour mill? A concrete update would settle the chatter.
