Indian cricketer Hanuma Vihari currently represents Andhra Pradesh in the ongoing Ranji Trophy tournament. The Andhra Pradesh captain hogged the limelight after he flexed his bravery in the fourth quarter-final clash against Madhya Pradesh at Holkar Cricket Stadium in Indore.
The right-handed batsman sustained an injury while facing Avesh Khan’s bouncer. Vihari ended up fracturing his wrist in the follow-through on Day 1 of the fourth quarter-final clash against Madhya Pradesh in Indore.
The star cricketer tried his best at swinging his willow but retired hurt while he was batting on 16. Since he couldn’t continue any longer to bat, he had to walk off the field to get the necessary treatment.
The Andhra Pradesh captain was then quickly taken to the hospital for further assistance. As it turned out, the scan reports had confirmed that Hanuma Vihari ran through a fracture.
