Watch: Gerald Coetzee leaves field with a suspected hamstring injury in IND vs SA 4th T20I

South Africa National Cricket Team have suffered a massive blow in the ongoing fourth T20I against the India National Cricket Team. Star pacer Gerald Coetzee walked off the field with an injury and sent a sense of scare among the home fans.

The final match of the four-match series between the South Africa National Cricket Team and the India National Cricket Team is underway. The series decider between the teams is taking place at the Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg.

Gerald Coetzee, who gave away 12 runs in the first over that he bowled, walked off the field ahead of the first ball of his second over,

South Africa have been asked to field first, and inside the powerplay, they were jolted by the injury of a key player. Gerald Coetzee, who gave away 12 runs in the first over that he bowled, walked off the field ahead of the first ball of his second over, which was also the last over the powerplay.

As Gerald Coetzee was about to deliver the ball, he withdrew from his run-up after he felt trouble in his left hamstring. He was attended by the physios and then wasn't allowed to continue as he walked off the field with Donovan Ferriera coming on as the substitute.

This could turn out to be a massive blow for the South Africa National Cricket Team. If he doesn't return to the field, it will make Proteas one bowler short. The fast bowler has been key for the team in the ongoing series, and I would be hoping that injury isn't serious.

In the absence of Gerald Coetzee, Lutho Sipamla completed the over and provided his team with success

In the absence of Gerald Coetzee, Lutho Sipamla completed the over and provided his team with success. The fast bowler removed Abhishek Sharma, who was going great guns with the bat. He took the India National Cricket Team off to a flyer and put the opposition under pressure.

Lutho Sipamla bowled a slower delivery that was short in length. Abhishek Sharma ran down the track to have a go square on the off-side. He had a slash and only managed an outside edge through to Klaasen, who took an easy catch to remove the batter.

Abhishek Sharma gave a great start to the India National Cricket Team. The opening batter went all guns blazing and made sure he kept the momentum in his team's side. The opening batter went after every ball and added 73 runs partnership with Sanju Samson inside the powerplay.

Abhishek Sharma ended with an innings of 36 runs off 18 balls. The opening batter batted with the strike rate of 200 and also slammed 2 fours and 4 sixes in his innings. His knock at the top set the great platform for the India National Cricket Team as they look to post a big total on the board.
