Team India registered a spectacular victory in the first T20 match against Sri Lanka. Batting first, Team India scored 213 runs and in response, Sri Lanka's team could score only 170 runs. However, amidst this victory of Team India, something happened which left not only Indian fans but also Sri Lankan fans breathless. Actually, in the match played in Pallekele, Team India's leg spinner Ravi Bishnoi got hit by the ball. The ball hit his face and after that he started writhing in pain. Thankfully, the ball did not hit his eye or else his career would have been in danger.

Accident with Ravi Bishnoi

This incident happened with Ravi Bishnoi in the 16th over.

Suryakumar Yadav put him on attack and Kamindu Mendis got a chance to catch the ball on the very first ball of Bishnoi. Bishnoi dived to his right to catch the ball but during this the ball hit his face. Bishnoi not only missed the catch but also got injured and started writhing in pain. Physio immediately came on the field to treat Bishnoi and a bandage was put on his face. Believe me, if the ball had hit even an inch above Ravi Bishnoi's face, his eye could have suffered a lot.
