Hamstring injury rules Jemimah Rodrigues out of The Hundred
Jemimah Rodrigues is a cricket player for India who plays for Southern Brave in The Hundred.
She got hurt during the competition with a hamstring injury.
The injury means she cannot play in the rest of The Hundred.
Her team chose Australian player Charli Knott to take her place.
Before getting hurt, Jemimah had scored 143 runs in six games, which is very good.
Her injury also makes it unclear if she can play in the Women's T20 Asia Cup.
The Asia Cup will be held in Dubai from August 28 to September 13.
India starts its first Asia Cup game on August 30 against Thailand.
If Jemimah is not better in time, Yastika Bhatia might join the India team instead.
Jemimah Rodrigues has been ruled out of the rest of The Hundred due to a hamstring injury.
She scored 143 runs in six innings at an average of 35.75 for Southern Brave before the injury.
Southern Brave have signed Australian all-rounder Charli Knott as her injury replacement.
Her participation in the Women's T20 Asia Cup, scheduled August 28 to September 13 in Dubai, is in serious doubt.
India begin their Asia Cup Group A campaign against Thailand on August 30, with Yastika Bhatia a possible replacement if Jemimah is unfit.
