Two Sydney Thunder players, Cameron Bancroft and Daniel Sams, collided head on while going at full pace in opposite directions trying to position themselves under a high ball in the field.

Cameron Bancroft’s BBL season is over after the Sydney Thunder opener suffered a fractured nose and a fractured right scapula in his horror collision with teammate Daniel Sams.

Both players were hospitalised after the clash but were expected to be discharged later on Saturday afternoon.
