Islamabad United fast bowler Hamza Sajjad was taken to Aga Khan Hospital after being struck on the head during a training session at the National Stadium Karachi earlier today.
The 29-year-old cricketer remains conscious and vitally stable, with doctors scheduling a precautionary CT scan to ensure no internal complications following the incident.
The three-times champions suspended their practice immediately after the incident, with medical staff confirming his condition is stable and he continues to respond normally to treatment.
Hospital officials confirmed Hamza was admitted for observation, with the CT scan planned later today, and his progress will determine further medical steps required for recovery.
Hamza Sajjad, signed by Islamabad United during the PSL 11 auction earlier this year, has played domestic cricket in Pakistan and represented Mashonaland Eagles in Zimbabwe.
The Pakistan Super League franchise has not yet announced whether Hamza will be available for upcoming matches, pending medical clearance following the precautionary hospital assessment.
Islamabad United management expressed relief that Hamza is stable, with further updates expected after the CT scan results are reviewed by doctors at Aga Khan Hospital.
Islamabad United begin their Karachi leg of the 2026 Pakistan Super League with a scheduled clash against defending champions Lahore Qalandars at National Stadium.
The three-time PSL champions currently occupy third place on the points table, securing five points from four matches including two wins, one loss, and one washout.
