IPL 2026: RCB Opener Phil Salt Returns To England For Scans After Finger Injury
Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari: Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) opener Phil Salt has flown back to England for scans on his injured finger which has sidelined him for the side’s last three IPL 2026 matches. In Salt’s absence, RCB have got his England compatriot Jacob Bethell to partner with Virat Kohli at the top of the order.
Salt, 29, damaged a finger on his left hand while diving to save a boundary during RCB's defeat to Delhi Capitals at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 18. As per a report in ESPNCricinfo, Salt, who holds a central contract with the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), returned home at the request of the national team's management to undergo further assessment.
“Both player and franchise remain hopeful that the finger will heal soon enough for Salt to return to India this month, with RCB aiming to defend the title that they won for the first time last season.
