TimesofIndia.com in DUBAI: Wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant took a blow to his left knee while doing drills at the ICC Academy in Dubai on Sunday. He was stationed right next to the net where Hardik Pandya was batting and a slash from the right-hander hit him on the knee.
Pant was down on the ground straight away and received attention from the medical team. The youngster looked in pain when the ice pack was applied to the knee which had receieved a lot of damage during his horrific car crash few years back.
After icing, Pant was back on his feet and limped for a bit.
A concerned Hardik Pandya went straight to his teammate and asked whether he was alright. The two hugged before Pant’s left knee was heavily strapped and he made his way to the change room.
The smile was back and he started padding up for a hit in the nets.
A joke and two was shared between him and Axar Patel before the two made their way to the nets. Pant certainly didn’t look comfortable while covering the distance but still went ahead with the hit.
