Mohammed Siraj walks back after injuring his throat while fielding against the Netherlands on Sunday. Siraj struck the first wicket for India and dismissed Wesley Barresi.
Siraj's injury happend during Kulpeed Yadav's over when Max O'Dowd hit in the air and Siraj ran from the long-on area to grab the ball. He dropped the ball as it hit him right on the throat leaving the fast bowler in a lot of pain and discomfort.
Siraj was seen sitting on the boundary with the medical team and was then taken to the dugout. “The ball hit my windpipe like Mohammed Siraj and it was very painful. It took me four or five hours to get fine. I was unable to take anything inside. I hope he recovers,” Imran Tahir said during his commentary on Star Sports.
India's batting order showed a stellar performance with two centuries by Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul and posted a mammoth 410-4 from 50 overs against the Netherlands on Sunday.
After their colleagues had perished following quick-fire fifties on a good batting track at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Iyer (128 not out) hit his fourth ton before Rahul (102) joined the party as the duo lit up the stage with a 208-run stand.
India put the Netherlands to the sword after winning the toss and opting to bat as skipper Rohit Sharma (61) and fellow opener Shubman Gill (51) picked off boundaries at will to give them a superb platform with 91 runs in the powerplay.
Gill was particularly severe on the bowlers with three fours and four huge sixes, but the world's top-ranked batsman found the fielder in the deep while taking on a short delivery from Paul van Meekeren after reaching his 12th half-century.
