The T20 match between Surrey and Sussex has been suspended after Henriques and Burns collided with each other fielding. Apparently it was a head clash.

Surrey have reported on twitter that Latest is Rory Burns and Moises Henriques have left the ground in ambulances but both players are conscious and sitting up.

Quite scary stuff.

Hopefully both Moises and Rory make a full recovery.

Article on Cricinfo sounds like they're both okay in terms of avoiding anything serious. It says Henriques' jaw collided with Burns' cheek so maybe a few breaks here and there.

Broken jaw in 3 places for Henriques. Ouch.

Sounds like, but two heads coming together.

Id say so but more head on head. They did say henriques head hit Burns knee but also there was a head clash too. Hard to work out how the "logistics" of such an incident could happen.

The lads are alright now but obviously the Philip Hughes accident would be fresh in people's minds. I reckon the first 10 or 15 minutes after people would have been holding their breath big time.

Best of luck in recovery. Haven't seen video but seen photos of the aftermath and it was pretty vicious.

Bloody hell that looks bad. Thank goodness they are both OK, because that looked real nasty.

Nasty, that will be painful for a while.

More morphine, nurse, if you please!
