A blow on the knee while wicketkeeping forced Rishabh Pant off the field on Thursday in the first Test against New Zealand in Bengaluru, and India's injury concerns grew when Yashasvi Jaiswal hurt his thumb while taking a sharp close-in catch on Friday.
Standing at gully while Mohammed Siraj was bowling on day three of the match, Jaiswal pouched an edge from Daryll Mitchell's bat that flew towards the Indian opener. He immediately grimaced and shook his hand, before being escorted off the field for medical attention.
