A video showing former Indian cricketer Vinod Kambli struggling to walk on a busy road has gone viral on social media, raising concerns among fans.
The 52-year-old was seen having difficulty maintaining his balance and was assisted by bystanders who came to his aid.
The 51-second video, shared on social media, purportedly show Kambli using a parked motorcycle for support as he attempts to walk.
An onlooker can be heard narrating the scene, exclaiming, “Kambli hai bhai. Maa kasam, Kambli hai” (He is Kambli, bro! I swear on my mom he is Kambli).
Several passersby are then seen helping Kambli as he struggles to reach his destination.
Vinod Kambli, known for his close friendship with Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, remains a celebrated figure in Indian cricket history.
He made his Test debut against England at Eden Gardens on February 2, 1993, playing 17 Tests and scoring 1,084 runs. Kambli also played in 104 One Day Internationals (ODIs), where he scored 2,477 runs.
The flamboyant left-hander has accumulated nearly 10,000 runs in first-class cricket, with a best individual score of 262.
The video has sparked discussions online, with some fans speculating that Kambli might have been intoxicated, while others expressed genuine concern about his health.
Kambli has faced several health challenges over the past few years, including a heart attack in 2013 while driving a car.
The incident has prompted an outpouring of support and well-wishes from fans, who hope for his speedy recovery and well-being.
