Kolkata: Indian captain Rohit Sharma seemingly hurt himself while fielding during the India vs England second ODI at the Lord's Cricket Ground in London on Thursday. He appeared to dislocate his elbow and quickly put it back in place before aggravating it.
The incident happened during the 28th over of the match when the captain flung to his left and made a partial stop to block a Liam Livingstone shot at extra cover while Ravindra Jadeja was bowling.
As per ESPNCricinfo, the Indian captain left the field soon after while the team's physio was seen walking behind him to the dressing room.
Senior opener Shikhar Dhawan took charge of setting the field in Rohit's absence.
