Rishabh Pant accident
The Delhi Capitals skipper has two deep wounds on his forehead, one right above the left eye, a ligament tear in the knee; and abrasions on his back. He has been sent to the Max Hospital in Dehradun where further scans, including an MRI, will determine the exact extent of the injuries and further course of treatment.
On the cricket front, Pant will miss the six white-ball games against Sri Lanka due to a knee issue that has been troubling him for some time. He has reportedly been asked to head to the National Cricket Academy for two weeks to undergo a strengthening session for his knee.
