John Hastings, the Australia allrounder who was bought by Kochi Tuskers Kerala for $20,000, has become the latest player to leave the IPL early following injury concerns. He will head back to Australia for a scan on his shoulder, and will not return this season.
"Going home from the IPL to have a scan on my shoulder. There is a lot of cricket coming up," he tweeted. "Hopefully next year I can play a part. But yes this year there will be no IPL for me."
