There have been reports that the ex-Indian batsman, Vinod Kambli, is fighting serious health issues, and cricket fans are worried. In a video that surfaced online recently, it could be seen that he had been walking but had to support himself on a motorbike parked on the roadside. Within no time at all, a sad video went viral and got people talking about Kambli’s well-being.
In the video, Vinod Kambli is seen struggling to keep himself erect and was visibly straining himself to stay upright. After some minutes, some men came forward to help him and supported him to his destination. The video went viral on social media posted by media personality Narendra Gupta. He took to social media to show his concern for the health of Kambli.
“Former Cricketer Vinod Kambli fighting for poor health. Former Indian Cricketer Vinod Kambli has been vocal about his struggles in health, as well as personal issues, in the last couple of years. He had been hospitalized a number of times due to various health issues, from heart problems to depression. I hope he recovers soon and gets the support he needs!” Gupta wrote.

This would not be the first time that Vinod Kambli’s health condition will be making public headlines. In 2013, he had a heart attack while proceeding from Chembur to Bandra and was later admitted to Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai. He had undergone angioplasty for the blocking of two arteries in 2012.

Vinod Kambli first came into the limelight as a young cricketer when he and legendary Sachin Tendulkar scored a record partnership of 664 runs in a school match in 1988. Then-17-year-old Kambli, together with then-16-year-old Tendulkar, showed the world that they were here to rule the cricketing arena. After another three years, in 1991, Kambli made his international debut in One Day Internationals, and his Test debut in 1993. He made an instant mark in Test cricket by scoring back-to-back double hundreds in his third and fourth matches against England.

Despite the auspicious start, Vinod Kambli never really lived up to great expectations from his international career. He turned out in 104 ODIs and 17 Tests for India; in ODIs he scored 2,477 runs with two centuries and fourteen fifties, while in Tests, he compiled more than a thousand runs with four centuries and three half-centuries.
He was just recently in the news with a video that has again brought Vinod Kambli into the limelight about his falling health. The cricketing fraternity and fans alike have their fingers crossed for his speedy recovery and good health.
