While returning from Delhi to Roorkee in Narsan, Haridwar district—about 90 kilometres from Dehradun—Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant was critically hurt in a traffic accident.
Tragic Car accident leaves Rishabh Pant injured
Around 5:15 am, the 25-year-car old’s reportedly collided with a road barrier. While it was being driven from his Roorkee home to New Delhi.
Pant said that he was a little sleepy when his car hit the divider. To exit the vehicle, the great cricketer cracked the windscreen. He sustained numerous head wounds as well as a ligament lesion to his right ankle.
Apparently Pant’s automobile caught fire, but he managed to escape, despite suffering injuries to his head, back, and feet, according to eyewitnesses.
According to several early news accounts, Pant was then hospitalised to Saksham Facility near Delhi, though it’s possible that they later moved him to a Dehradun hospital. His condition is still steady.
The director of India’s National Cricket Academy, VVS Laxman, claimed on Twitter that Pant is “out of danger” despite not yet knowing the full extent of his injuries. Pant was scheduled to visit this academy in early January.
