Six Times when Indian Cricketers Played In Pain:
There is always a danger of players being injured in the game of cricket. Many times injuries are minor, so due to these, the career of the players is also in danger. However, the real player is called the one who is always ready to support the team regardless of the pain. Rishabh Pant has set a tremendous example in the Test between India and England in Manchester.
Pant’s right -foot finger has been a fracture, but despite this he landed to bat on the field. This is not the first time an Indian player has shown such spirit. In the past, there have been some occasions when the Indian players stayed for the team despite the pain. You will tell you about six such players in this article.
6. Rishabh Pant played even after fracture in the thumb
At present, Team India is on a tour of England. The Indian team is behind 1-2 in this series and the fourth Test is being played in Manchester. In the third session of the first day of this Test, when Pant was batting for 37 runs, Chris Woakes came and took the ball to his shoes. Pant’s right leg was badly swollen with this hit. After this, it was found in the scan that his toe had been fractured. After this, Team India came under tension because they would not be able to bat again in the Test. But Pant knew that the team needed him. For this reason, he forgot the pain and described himself as available for batting on the second day. Pant landed on the field and set a fantastic fifty.
5. Rohit Sharma batted broken thumb together
India’s ODI team captain Rohit Sharma won the hearts of fans to bat with a ‘dislike’ thumb in 2022 ODI against Bangladesh. When Hitman saw that the team is in trouble and needed on the field, he landed at number ninth. Rohit played a brilliant innings of 51* off 28 balls, including 3 fours and 5 sixes. However, despite Rohit’s courageous innings, Team India lost the match by 5 runs.
4. Hanuma Vihari stayed for 3 hours after injection of pain
The name of Hanuma Vihari is also included in this list. He has played only 16 matches in his Test career so far. The most memorable innings of Vihari’s career came against Australia in 2021. In fact, in this Test in Sydney, Vihari batted for about three hours after taking injections despite being injured. Actually, he was hurt in the leg and Vihari did not feel his leg even after injections. Despite this, he faced 161 balls and remained unbeaten till the end. Vihari played an important role in drawing this test.
3. Cheteshwar Pujara kept playing with 11 injuries
The Australia team stood at the threshold of victory in the Test in Sydney in 2021. But Pujara kept tasting the taste of victory due to passion. Pujara suffered a total of 11 injuries during the match, as the Australian bowlers were bowling quite dangerous. Pujara ate countless balls on his body, but did not stagge him. Pujara faced 176 balls in the first innings. At the same time, he played 205 balls in the second innings and scored 77 runs.
2. Yuvraj Singh played World Cup 2011 despite cancer disease
If Yuvraj Singh was not part of Team India’s squad in the World Cup 2011, then perhaps the trophy would not have come to the Men in Blue part. Yuvi did not even care about her life to make the country champions. In the tournament, Yuvraj landed to play despite suffering from cancer disease. During the live matches, he also received vomiting of blood, but this man was not ready to give up. Yuvraj scored 362 runs in the tournament at an average of above 90 and also took 15 wickets.
1. Anil Kumble stayed on the field with broken jaw
Anil Kumble also fell victim to a painful accident in the Test match between India and West Indies in 2002. In fact, in this match, the jaw of Kumin was broken due to the bouncer of Marwin Dillon and there was a lot of blood. It seemed that Kumble would probably no longer come on the field again in this match. But he went on the field to bowl by tying a bandage in the innings of the West Indies and threw 14 overs in a row. During this time, Kumble was successful in taking a wicket.
