The 30 ear made no mistake a was in perfect position to collect the ball but the ball viciously jumped off the surface and hit him on the head unexpectedly.

Ojha was quickly down on the ground and had to be taken out off the field on a stretcher. Later, Ojha returned to normal after undergoing a CT scan at the hospital. A team official later stated that although cricketer was grieving in pain but had lost consciousness and his heartbeat was perfectly normal.
