LAHORE: Rawalpindiz have confirmed that New Zealand all-rounder Daryl Mitchell has been released from their squad after sustaining a right calf injury during the PSL 11 match against Islamabad United on April 23.
Mitchell was closely monitored by the team’s medical staff in the aftermath of the game. Following a thorough assessment, he was deemed unfit to continue participation in the tournament. In consultation with doctors, the decision was taken to allow him to return home to begin his recovery and rehabilitation process.
The Pindiz management expressed full support for the player, extending their best wishes for a swift and complete recovery. “We stand behind Daryl and wish him well as he begins his rehabilitation. His health and long-term fitness remain the priority,” the franchise stated.
Mitchell’s absence is a significant blow to Rawalpindiz, who have struggled to find rhythm in PSL 11 and were relying on his all-round abilities to stabilize their campaign. His departure further compounds the team’s challenges as they continue their search for a first win of the season.
