recovery is subjective. most patients are able to do most activities of daily living in 6 weeks time. your rehabilitation programme will last for about 6 months post which you can start practicing for the game you play.
the exercise protocol has been explained in one of our blogs - POST ACL REHABILITATION. Doctors do not assure any guarantee for life time. If you could injure a part made by God himself, you are liable to break it again if you perform supra-physiological activities without pre conditioning/training. You shall be able to do all the activities like the normal leg. all the best
