thats gota hurt

Answer 1

Wow! That is too bad. Hope he recovers well.

Answer 2

Thats looks painful. He looks like a schoolboy when he wicketkeeps and I felt really bad when he got hit. A cricketball will always hurt no matter what speed it is travelling in.

Answer 3

Was watching it live. It was a huge hit. Made a cracking sound on impact. Just as a ball hitting a bat. Sound of a hit, I mean.

His nose is surely broken. Poor chap.He is SO brave. Kept smiling while ice pack was being applied. then kept wicket after the episode without wasting time. While they zoomed in on the broken nose.

Should have been wearing a helmet whatever the bowling.

He has had a lucky escape. These hits could be fatal.

So many injured today. 4 injuries. Sachin, Zaheer, Ishant and Parthiv.
