New Delhi: India Green's Pragyan Ojha was involved in a freak incident on Wednesday during his team's Duleep Trophy match against India Blue.
The left-arm spinner was struck by a ball while fielding at mid-on.
This happened after Pankaj Singh played Jalaj Saxena's delivery with a cross-batted shot. The ball took off suddenly as Ojha got down on one knee to collect it.
After the impact, Ojha fell to the floor and appeared in complete shock. He was immediately rushed to the hospital to conduct tests.
