PSL 2024: [WATCH]- Alex Hales And Shadab Khan Collide While Attempting To Catch Kieron Pollard’s Shot

In a PSL 2024 match at the National Stadium on February 29, Islamabad United captain Shadab Khan and Alex Hales collided while attempting to catch Kieron Pollard. The incident occurred on the last ball of Karachi Kings’ innings when Hunain Shah bowled a full toss that Pollard hit down the ground.

Hales and Shadab, fielding at long-off and long-on respectively, went for the catch. Although Hales got his hands on the ball, the collision with Shadab resulted in him dropping the catch. Despite the incident, Pollard concluded with an unbeaten 48 runs off 28 balls, contributing to Karachi’s respectable total.

Both players fell down, and the team’s medical staff quickly checked on them. Thankfully, both got up, and everything seemed okay for Islamabad United. You can watch the video here:
