The right-handed batter got hit by a Jofra Archer delivery on his index finger while batting during the fifth and final T20I against England at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.<\/p>\n<p>According to reports, the 30-year-old has returned to Thiruvananthapuram and will resume training only after his rehabilitation at the National Cricket Academy (NCA) in Bengaluru and will require clearance to return to competitive action. A BCCI source claimed that Samson is also highly unlikely to play in the quarter-finals of the Ranji Trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s what the BCCI source, as quoted by PTI stated:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Samson has fractured his right index finger. It will take him five to six weeks before he can resume proper nets. So there is no chance of him playing the Ranji Trophy quarter-final for Kerala (vs J&amp;K) in Pune from February 8-12.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>He is expected to return to action during the upcoming edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL).
