NEW DELHI: "Oh dear! I think he's got it flush on the helmet. This is seriously quick from Lahiru Kumara," said commentator Harsha Bhogle on air as Ishan Kishan copped a blow to his head courtesy a ferocious 146-clicks plus bouncer rom the Lankan pacer during the India-Sri Lanka second T20I. Kishan was later taken to the hospital for a precautionary CT scan and was fortunate to get away without any major damage.
Express pace bowling can be dangerous sometimes but it also brings with it a sheer adrenaline rush and is a treat to watch in international cricket.
