The collision occurred down the ground where du Plessis and Hasnain, who were fielding at long-on and long-off respectively, converged at full speed to prevent David Miller’s drive from crossing the boundary.
Although Hasnain tried to evade the collision by pulling away at the last moment, it was too late and du Plessis’ head crashed into his knee.
du Plessis was attended by the physio on the ground for a few minutes before being shifted to the hospital. He was replaced by the 19-year-old Saim Ayub who came on as a concussion substitute.
