The Tamil Nadu batter was carried off the ground on a stretcher, with Manav Suthar replacing him in the middle.
Indrajith was in the midst of a crucial 87-run partnership with Abhishek Porel, stabilising the innings after a top-order collapse left the team struggling at 41/4. India C posted a total of 297 in its first innings, with Shashwat Rawat leading the charge with a century.
Unbeaten on 34 from 62 deliveries, Indrajith was perfectly complementing Porel, who was scoring more freely.
India C will be hoping Indrajith’s injury is not serious, allowing him to resume his innings as it looks to chase down the total and secure a first-innings lead.
