England opener Ben Duckett was hit on the thumb during the second day of the first Test against Pakistan, preventing him from taking up his usual batting spot.
What is the injury?
Ben Duckett is suffering from a possible dislocation of his left thumb, after getting hit by an Abrar Ahmed shot towards the end of Pakistan's innings. Fielding at slip to Joe Root, Duckett managed to latch on to the offering on the second attempt, but was in visible discomfort as the ball hit the tip of his thumb.
After being checked on by the team physio, Duckett had to leave the field.
With Duckett unavailable to open the innings, stand-in captain Ollie Pope joined Zak Crawley to face the new ball, but fell for a second-ball duck to a stunner by Aamir Jamal.
