India opener Shikhar Dhawan, who had scored a match-winning hundred against Australia on Sunday, has been ruled out of 2019 World Cup for three weeks due to a fractured thumb. The 33-year-old had sustained the injury after being hit twice on his hand while batting against Australia and did not take the field during Australia's innings.

Shikhar Dhawan will therefore, not be able to play India’s upcoming matches against New Zealand, Pakistan, Afghanistan, West Indies and England - all these matches are scheduled to be played in June.
