First ball of the
game and Michael Christie (Lintz wicket keeper) got struck by a fierce
delivery from his brother. Michael was sent to hospital to get some stitches,
and later returned to finish off his wicket keeping stint. This is the injury
Michael suffered, and we are all grateful he is not badly injured. |
