Topley made a valiant effort to stop the ball by diving in the eighth over of Mumbai’s innings, but he botched the dive and fell awkwardly, injuring his shoulder. He looked to have rolled his shoulder, and it was excruciatingly painful.
Topley became the first play-time injury case for RCB this year after being seen by the squad physio and medical staff, who removed him from the pitch.
As RCB comfortably won the match, veteran wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik spoke with JioCinema to provide updates on Topley’s injury.
Topley’s shoulder did pop out, he claimed but eventually slipped back in.
It (shoulder) did pop out, but it went back in. I think he went for a scan during the game itself. He’s not in as much pain as we thought he’d be. We’ll have to wait and see.”
