The pants hurt their fingers during the 34th over, bowled by Pace Spearhead Jasprit Bumrah. On the first ball, Bumrah did a full-length delivery to Oli Pope to angling leg-side, and England batter looked at it to remove it, but completely missed it.
The ball went towards Rishabh Pant, which dives the entire dive, but only a little can be erased on the ball as England raised two lefts. As soon as the ball hit him on the fingers and injured him, the physio immediately came in the middle to give some treatment.
Pant somehow managed to stay in the middle for the remainder, but in the next over, Dhruv Jurlel was called as a substitute wicketkeeper.
