Although injuries are part and parcel of every sport, some of them can be unbearable to watch and it can leave the fans in tears. This kind of incident happened during a T20 match where Luke Fletcher's first ball was driven ferociously straight back by Sam Hain and struck him on the head in his follow-through. Luke’s teammates along with the batsman, everybody was shocked when they saw the fast bowler went down to ground holding his head.

Notts physio James Pipe reached there to helped him. The 28-year-old was able to walk off the pitch, with towels wrapped around his head and he was taken straight to the hospital. Later his team mate Jake Ball tweeted a photograph of him taking oxygen.

In this match Birmingham beat Nottinghamshire by six wickets. Fletcher himself tweeted late on Saturday night. 

Cricket is considered as a very sensitive game for the players since the terrible accident that led to the death of Australia's Philip Hughes when he was struck on the back of the head batting for South Australia against New South Wales in Sydney in 2014.
