Currently, he is rehabilitating from a shoulder injury, which he picked up during the Indian Premier League. While attempting a flying catch, he landed awkwardly on his shoulder, which led him to another shoulder injury in two years. Lynn has played for KKR so far in the IPL.
The 27-year-old has revealed that he is in progress to return after suffering an injury. “I’ve had some good reports from the surgeon and the QC medical staff and we’re working to the recovery plan. It is feeling okay now, although there is still a way to go,” added Lynn.
