    IPL 2026: Lungi Is 100 Percent Fit After Completing Mandatory Concussion Stand-down Period, Says Munaf

    By IANS News May 04, 2026 • 18:40 PM View: 216
    Max Super Speciality Hospital: Delhi Capitals bowling coach Munaf Patel confirmed that fast bowler Lungi Ngidi has cleared the mandatory concussion stand‑down period and is ‘100 percent fit’ to return to action ahead of the side’s crucial clash against five-time champions Chennai Super Kings, to be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday evening.

    Ngidi suffered an unfortunate head injury while fielding in the third over of DC’s afternoon game against Punjab Kings on April 25 and was rushed to BLK-Max Super Speciality Hospital, Pusa Road, in an ambulance via a green corridor created by Delhi Police.

    Under ICC regulations, a mandatory seven‑day stand‑down applies to players diagnosed with concussion. Even though IPL 2026 Playing Conditions did not spell it out explicitly, Ngidi had to serve that rest period after being discharged from the hospital on the same evening, with scans revealing no major concerns.
