THE Northamptonshire Steelbacks bowler injured celebrating the key wicket of Worcestershire’s Moeen Ali is unlikely to play again this season.
Olly Stone dismissed Moeen in Friday’s NatWest T20 Blast match and celebrated with a huge leap and punch of the air.
Stone fell in a heap and, although he attempted to finish his over, collapsed in his delivery stride and had to be carried from the ground.
Northamptonshire confirmed today that Stone had sustained a compact knee injury with anterior cruciate ligament and cartilage damage.
Northamptonshire won the match against Worcestershire by seven wickets.
