As per a report on ESPNCricinfo, allrounder was struck on the lower right side of his neck while trying to evade a bouncer of the Bangladeshi international pacer.

Shuvo was batting on 21 when he was hit in the 25th over.

Shuvo, now in a stable condition, will undergo MRI scan at Apollo hospital, confirmed BCB physician Dr Debashish Chowdhury.

"He is stable now, but as with any head injuries, they will observe him for at least 24 hours. Once we know his scan results, we will be able to understand his condition better. It would have helped if he was wearing the helmet with new safety regulations, but he wasn't," Chowdhury was quoted by the website as saying.
