Jay Shah, the Honorary Secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), provided an update on wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant after he was injured in a road accident, saying that the left-handed batter is "stable" and is "undergoing scans".
Early on Friday morning, Pant, 25, suffered multiple injuries when his car collided with a road divider and caught fire on the Delhi-Dehradun highway. He has been admitted to Max Hospital in Dehradun after being initially taken to Saksham Hospital. Pant was reportedly on his way to his home in Roorkee.
"My thoughts and prayers are with Rishabh Pant as he fights his way back to recovery. I have spoken to his family and the doctors treating him. Rishabh is stable and undergoing scans. We are closely monitoring his progress and will provide him with all the necessary support," tweeted Shah.
