Sharma sustained minor injuries but it wasn’t clear if the accident was due to the cricketer’s fault. It’s reported that Jadeja took the girl to a nearby hospital for treatment.

Jadeja, along with off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, was rested from the ongoing India-England T20I series.

Ashwin had a forgettable ODI series against England, picking three wickets in three matches while giving away 60 or more runs in all the matches. Jadeja, on the other hand, picked four wickets in three games but at 5.23 was the most economical bowler of the series.
