How did Rishabh Pant get injured?

On the first day of the Lord's Test, during England's first innings, in the 34th over bowled by Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant jumped to stop the ball going on the leg side, after which he got injured and was groaning in pain. His hand touched the ball but he could not stop it completely. After this, the medical staff came on the ground and the match was halted for some time. Before the match resumed, Rishabh Pant had left the field.

Is Rishabh Pant ruled out of the third Test?

Former England captain Nasser Hussain also gave an update on Rishabh Pant. He said that he has an injury on the index finger of his left hand, his nail is broken, which causes a lot of pain. But there is no fracture in the finger, he is being treated by applying ice in the dressing room. However, there is very little possibility that Rishabh Pant will be out of the third Test. He can come to bat.

Earlier, Ben Stokes won the toss and decided to bat first. Nitish Kumar Reddy dismissed both openers Jack Crowley (18) and Ben Duckett (23) in the 14th over. After this, Ollie Pope and Joe Root made a century partnership (109). Pope was dismissed by Ravindra Jadeja after scoring 44 runs. After this, Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Harry Brook cheaply (11). By the end of the first day's play, England has scored 251 runs for the loss of 4 wickets. Joe Root is unbeaten on 99 runs with Ben Stokes (39 *).
