Today is a very busy day for netizens, as several major events occurred at the same time. At midnight, we got to know about legendary footballer Pele’s accident, and by morning, the demise of PM Modi’s mother had shadowed the majority of the trends. However, the unexpected accident involving renowned Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant has stunned everyone.

Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant recently met with an unfortunate accident. He was injured while driving from Delhi to Uttarakhand when his vehicle hit a divider and caught fire. An accident happened as Pant was driving his Mercedes in Uttarakhand, near Roorkee.

The young player had just returned from Dubai and was on his way to his family’s house before the new year. When Rishabh fell asleep behind the wheel, he lost control. At the time of the incident, the batsman was the only one in the car, and according to Uttarakhand Police Director General Ashok Kumar, he cracked the windscreen to escape the flaming vehicle.

He sustains a head, knee, and shin wounds as a consequence of the incident. He is seeking treatment at the Max Hospital in Dehradun for what could be a leg fracture.

In its announcement, the BCCI said the wicketkeeper-batsman has two wounds on his forehead and ligament damage in his right knee. In addition to his back injuries, he also had abrasions on his ankle, wrist, and toe. He hasn’t been burned or fractured.

“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.”

However, following the incident, videos of Rishabh have gone viral on social media. While many people shared many disturbing images without any worry, Rohit Sharma’s wife, Ritika Sajdeh, expressed her annoyance by criticizing those who shared Rishabh’s videos and were insensitive.
