Rishabh Pant health update: BCCI issues a medical update after his car accident

The BCCI on Friday issued an update on Rishabh Pant after his car accident in the early morning of 30th December.

“Rishabh has two cuts on his forehead, a ligament tear in his right knee, and has also hurt his right wrist, ankle, toe, and has suffered abrasion injuries on his back. Rishabh’s condition remains stable, and he has now been shifted to Max Hospital, Dehradun, where he will undergo MRI scans to ascertain the extent of his injuries and formulate his further course of treatment, the BCCI said in a statement.

India wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant met with a car accident early on Friday morning near Roorkee, Uttarakhand. He was admitted to Saksham Hospital Multispecialty and Trauma Centre where he was treated for impact injuries.

The BCCI is in constant touch with Rishabh’s family while the Medical Team is in close contact with the doctors currently treating Rishabh. The Board will see to it that Rishabh receives the best possible medical care and gets all the support he needs to come out of this traumatic phase,” read the statement on BCCI’s official website.

BCCI secretary Jay Shah had earlier said on Twitter that they will provide Pant with full support during his recovery from the accident.
