LONDON: Luke Fletcher, the Nottinghamshire pacer, has been cleared to return to cricket training by doctors, it was confirmed on Thursday Fletcher was hit on the head during the Natwest Twenty20 Blast game versus Birmingham Bears.
Sam Hain drove the ball straight back at the bowler and Fletcher was hit trying to take evasive action. Immediately after the blow, Fletcher’s head was wrapped up in a towel while walking off the field. As the umpires immediately called for medical assistance, the pacer appeared conscious while being assisted off the field by the physio and was later taken to a hospital.
He was subsequently ruled out of the season. “It’s very pleasing to finally get the nod to start full training again,” said Fletcher. “I’ve felt pretty good throughout once things settled down, but it’s nice to get the official word that everything is okay.
