“We were called at 7:36pm on Saturday 29 June to reports of an incident on Queensbury Station Parade,” an ambulance spokesman told Telegraph Sport.
“We sent multiple resources to the scene, including ambulance crews, a paramedic in a fast response car and an incident response officer. We also dispatched London’s Air Ambulance. We treated a man at the scene before taking him to a major trauma centre as a priority.”
The horrifying fall took place from a flagpole on top of the Tube sign outside Queensbury station. There were outbreaks of celebrations among London’s Indian community in many parts of the city after the country lifted the trophy for the first time in 13 years.
South Africa needed 26 from 24 balls in pursuit of 177, but the wicket of Heinrich Klaasen for 52 from 27 swung a dramatic game in India’s favour. Arshdeep Singh conceded only four from the penultimate over, leaving Hardik Pandya to defend 16 from the last.
David Miller was sensationally caught by Suryakumar Yadav at long-off for 21 from the first ball before India closed out a seven-run win.

“We stuck together as a team even though at one point it looked like it was going South Africa’s way and we wanted this really bad,” said the winning captain Rohit Sharma. “We wanted to win this, to win a tournament like this, I’m very proud of the boys we have and the management as well.”
