West Indies pacer Shamilia Connell collapsed on the field and had to be taken away to the hospital during Bangladesh’s unsuccessful run chase in their women’s World Cup match on Friday.
The cause of the collapse is not yet clear, but Connell was able to get up and climb on to a waiting ambulance with her hands on her stomach after her concerned teammates ran towards her during the 47th over of Bangladesh innings.
