11 Cricketers who played with injuries
We list the ten instances when players showed incredible resilience and bravery on the cricketing pitch while playing with injuries.
6. Tamim Iqbal (Bangladesh)
One of the if not the most celebrated Bangladeshi batter of all time Tamim Iqbal, is the team's leading run-scorer in ODI cricket with 8074 runs to his name and will be eyeing that elusive 10,000 run-mark in the 50-over format.
The elegant southpaw made the headlines in the 2018 Asia Cup clash against Sri Lanka when he batted with one hand after suffering a wrist fracture. Tamim was showered with applause from the cricketing fraternity after his heroics with the bat for the team.
The opener was taken off the field after he was struck by delivery on his wrist. He was taken to the hospital for a quick scan which revealed a fracture, ruling him out of the Asia Cup. But the batter defied the warnings from the doctors and went out to bat again when the ninth Bangladeshi wicket fell. He batted with just one arm, surviving at one end, while the well-set Mushfiqur Rahim did the scoring from the other end.
