The BCCI confirmed that Prince Yadav was ruled out of the third T20I after sustaining a hamstring niggle while bowling in the second T20I against Zimbabwe.

"Prince Yadav was unavailable for selection in the third T20I due to a hamstring niggle which he sustained while bowling in the second T20I against Zimbabwe" posted BCCI.

When did Prince Yadav get injured?

Prince Yadav was injured in the seventh over of Zimbabwe's run chase. As Prince began his run-up for the third ball of the over, he suddenly stopped and looked to be in pain. He immediately grabbed his left hamstring, raising concerns among the Indian players and support staff.

The team physiotherapist rushed onto the field to check on the young pacer. After a brief assessment, it became clear that Prince was unable to continue. He appeared to have suffered a muscle strain and needed help to walk off the field, ending his over after bowling only two deliveries.
