- Azam Khan, a powerful batsman for Pakistan got injured
- Underwent tests after being struck in the head on Monday while playing in the Pallekele leg of the Lanka Premier League (LPL)
- Azam, a member of the Galle Gladiators of the LPL, was struck in the head while playing without a helmet against the Kandy Falcons
On a stretcher, the cricket player was removed from the ground. At a nearby hospital, scans were done right away on him. Azam’s scans were clear, and a franchise representative told GeoSuper.tv that he is currently doing good.
In the sixteenth over of the Falcons’ batting order, Nuwan Pradeep’s slower ball struck Azam behind the stumps. Moin Khan, Azam’s father, who is also the franchise’s head coach, arrived to check on his son.
Gladiators sent him well wishes on Twitter as well.
“Please say a prayer for Azam Khan’s quick recovery! He was maintaining wickets when he received a knock to the head! Prayers for you, Gladiator, as he has been taken for medical attention “wrote the franchise.
Azam is a seasoned T20I batter who usually plays for international franchise teams, it should be emphasised.
The hitter faced England in his T20I debut in 2016, although he managed just six runs in three games for the national team.
