Rishabh Pant Accident: Anil Kapoor, Anupam Kher Visit Him In Hospital; Share Health Update

31 December,2022 12:51 PM IST

Indian southpaw Rishabh Pant met with a horrific car crash on December 30 while returning from Delhi to Roorkee. Bollywood actors Anupam Kher and Anil Kapoor arrived at Max Hospital in Dehradun to meet the cricketer. Pant has two cuts on his forehead, a ligament tear in right knee. He has also hurt his right wrist, ankle, toe and has suffered abrasion injuries on his back. His condition remains stable.

Rishabh Pant`s plan to surprise his mother ahead of the new year turned into a horrific accident after his car collided with a road divider on the Delhi-Dehradun highway in the wee hours on Friday.

The star India wicket-keeper batter was lucky to survive serious injuries due to his alertness, jumping off his Mercedes in the nick of time as the car went up in flames after hitting the divider.

Dr. Sushil Nagar, who was the first to attend to Pant in the emergency ward of Saksham Hospital near Roorkee, said the cricketer didn`t suffer any fracture but there was a ligament injury on his knee which would require further investigation.

"When he was brought to our hospital, he was fully conscious and I spoke to him. He wanted to surprise his mother and was going back home," Nagar told PTI.
He suffered big bruises on his back but Nagar said those are not burn injuries.
"The injuries happened because he jumped out of car by breaking the window of his car as soon as it caught fire. As he landed on the side of the road on his rear, the skin peeled off. But those are not burn injuries and not very serious."
