When the collision occurred Praveen Kumar, a resident of Multan Nagar in Meerut, was driving his Land Rover. The former Indian bowler expressed his gratitude after stating, “Things could have gone far worse. By God’s grace, we are unharmed, and I am talking to you right now. I was driving to drop off my nephew, but a big truck hit my car from behind around 9:30 PM. Thank God it was an SUV, else there could have been a serious injury.
