Indian cricket star Rishabh Pant was hospitalised after the car he was travelling in met with an accident on National Highway 58 near Roorkee. Pant was driving the car himself, and the crash took place around 5.30 am when he reportedly felt sleepy, lost control of the car, and it hit the divider.
It is understood that Pant has suffered injuries on the head, along with ligament injury on the right ankle. However, he is said to be out of danger now. Following Pant’s horrific incident, cricketers from across the globe prayed for the wicketkeeper-batter’s speedy recovery on social media.
“Praying for Rishabh Pant. Thankfully he is out of danger. Wishing @RishabhPant17 a very speedy recovery. Get well soon, Champ,” tweeted former India cricketer VVS Laxman.
