Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan will miss the next three weeks of the World Cup.

He's been sidelined with an injured thumb after being hit during India's win against Australia earlier this week.

According to media reports, Dhawan will be replaced by either Rishabh Pant or Shreyas Iyer.

India's next match is against New Zealand on Thursday.
