During Day 3 of the third Test of ongoing South Africa’s tour of India at the JSCA stadium in Ranchi, the fierce Indian fast bowler Umesh Yadav bowled a lethal bouncer to South Africa opening batsman Dean Elgar to hit him in the helmet. The incident took place on the third delivery of the 10th over when taking his eyes off the ball proved costly for Elgar as he was smacked right in the middle of his helmet.

The southpaw immediately fell down and only got up after receiving medical attention. It was the same reason why the umpires decided to take an early tea. Soon after that, Elgar has retired hurt at the moment as all-rounder George Linde walked out to bat alongside wicket-keeper batsman Heinrich Klaasen in the last session.

It is reported that Elgar has been sent to a hospital for a concussion test and his substitute has also been announced a Tenunies de Bryun. With South Africa already seven down, the visitors will need De Bryun to retain some respect for the team before the visitor’s further wickets.

Here is the video of the vicious delivery:
