Indian cricket star Mayank Agarwal shares a reassuring glimpse of his post-health scare journey on a flight.
Indian Test cricketer Mayank Agarwal has shared a photo on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, featuring him sipping water on a plane. The right-handed batsman from Karnataka posted the picture with the caption 'Bilkul bhi risk nahi lene ka re babaaaaa !' referring to the recent health scare he encountered.
The 32-year-old reportedly ingested spirit, a disinfectant and cleaning agent, on an Indigo flight, mistaking it for bottled water. This led to a burning sensation, requiring Agarwal to be swiftly taken to a local hospital after disembarking. Fortunately, he was declared out of danger and eventually returned to play for Karnataka in the Ranji Trophy.
