The India all-rounder will miss India’s top-of-the-table clash with New Zealand due to an ankle injury sustained in the seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh.
Pandya is expected to join back up with the team ahead of their Cricket World Cup match against defending champions England in Lucknow on 29 October.
The 30-year-old was bowling his first over against Bangladesh when he attempted to field a ball knocked back to him by Bangladesh opener Litton Das, but instead rolled an ankle as he tumbled to the ground.
Pandya was forced from the field and took no further part in the game after being sent to hospital for scans.
India star Virat Kohli took the ball to bowl out the three remaining deliveries of the over.
