India's T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav's hopes of making a comeback into the Test team have suffered a major setback as the flamboyant batter has been reportedly ruled out of the first round of the upcoming Duleep Trophy.

Suryakumar injured his hand while fielding for Mumbai against Tamil Nadu during the recently concluded Buchi Babu Tournament and is likely to miss the first round of the marquee red-ball tournament as reported by the Press Trust of India (PTI).

Suryakumar is a part of Team C which will be led by Ruturaj Gaikwad. Team C have already lost the services of their speedster Umran Malik due to illness and Suryakumar's absence will hurt their chances even more.
