Agartala, Jan 31: The cricket world was shocked during the evening hours of Tuesday as Indian cricketer Mayank Agarwal was rushed to hospital after falling ill just before his New Delhi-bound flight was about to take off. Currently, he has been now out of danger.
This came after Mayank Agarwal drank liquid from a pouch, which he thought was water, and was kept on his seat as he was on board with IndiGo Airlines. Now, it has come to light that the Indian cricketer has filed a police complaint through his manager to investigate the matter.
Providing details about the incident, "Mayank Agarwal (is) an international cricket player. Now, he is stable, and his vitals are normal. But his manager has lodged a specific complaint under NCCPS (New Capital Complex Police Station) to investigate the matter," SP West Tripura Kiran Kumar told the news agency PTI.
Mayank has appeared in 21 Tests for India but lost his place in the side in 2022 following a series of inconsistent performances. The opener was also part of the Punjab Kings franchise but was released. Sunrisers Hyderabad had roped him in later. He had an indifferent season with the side, scoring 270 runs in ten matches. Now, he is playing in Ranji Trophy for Karnataka.
What happened?
Mayank had led Karnataka to a 29-run victory over Tripura and was scheduled to fly to Gujarat for his side's next Ranji Trophy match against Railways. However, the police said that he will be flown to Bengaluru for further treatment due to the current conditions.
