Fast ball hits ribs during throwdown practice

According to the viral video, this incident happened when Vaibhav Suryavanshi was practicing hard at the nets for the upcoming match. Team India’s well-known throwdown specialist Raghavendra Dwivedi was throwing balls to him for batting practice. Meanwhile, Vaibhav could not catch a very fast-paced short pitch ball from Raghavendra and the ball went straight and hit his ribs. The speed of the ball was so fast that as soon as the injury occurred, the young batsman immediately sat on the pitch groaning in pain. It was also seen in the video that immediately after this incident, throwdowner Raghavendra moved forward to pick up the ball instead of handling the player.

practicing for 5 minutes

Immediately after this unexpected accident, the practice session going on in the nets was stopped for about 5 minutes. The players and support staff of the Indian team immediately ran to Vaibhav. He was given water to drink and the team physio inspected his injury closely on the field itself. This young player showed amazing courage on the field after confirming that there was no serious internal injury. Within just 5 to 6 minutes of recovering from the pain, Vaibhav, showing his ‘Bihari spirit’, picked up the bat again and took guard at the crease and got ready to bat.

The team management has not issued any medical bulletin regarding his fitness. During cricket practice, such minor injuries are common which get cured after first aid. Fans hope that he will come on the field fully fit. Let us tell you that in the first match, Vaibhav had hit a brilliant six on the very first ball of star bowler Joffra Archer, but he was stumped out on the spin of Will Jacques. Now all eyes will be on his return in the next match to be held in Nottingham at 10 pm Indian time.
