Former cricketer Vinod Kambli was discharged from Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital on Tuesday night after he was admitted on November 29 due to a heart attack.

“He has just been discharged from the hospital and his condition is better,” a source from the hospital was quoted as saying by Indian Express.

The 41-year-old was rushed to the suburban hospital by police personnel after he complained of chest pain while driving his car and sought help. He was kept at the ICU of the hospital since then.

The former middle-order batsman shared an unbroken partnership of 664 runs in a school match against St Xavier’s School, Fort, with childhood friend and cricketing great Sachin Tendulkar who recently retired from the game.

Kambli, an elegant left-hander in his playing days, had undergone angioplasty on two of his blocked arteries in July last year.

Dr Narendra Trivedi said that, Kambli was kept under observation in the intensive care unit. However, his condition had stabilised within few hours of admission.
