India's batting stalwart Smriti Mandhana took a vicious blow on the head when she was struck by a bouncer from South African pacer Shabnim Ismail in the early stages of the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup warm-up game at the Mainpower Oval here on Sunday. The Mithali Raj-led India scored a fighting 244/9 in the allotted 50 overs after their opponents elected to bowl first.
A team doctor assessed the 25-year-old Mandhana following the incident and originally declared her fit to continue only to retire hurt an over-and-a-half later after another consultation. At the time Mandhana retired hurt, the left-hander was unbeaten on 12 from 23 deliveries.
