Noida: Techie suffers cardiac arrest while playing cricket, dies after collapsing on pitch

Engineer Vikas Negi, attempting to take a run, collapsed midway on the cricket pitch. He was promptly taken to a nearby hospital, where, upon arrival, a doctor declared him dead.

In a shocking incident, an engineer in Noida collapsed and passed away due to a heart attack while playing cricket. The tragic moment of the techie collapsing on the ground while taking a single was captured on camera.

Engineer Vikas Negi, attempting to take a run, collapsed midway on the cricket pitch. Observing his fall, the wicketkeeper and other players hurried to his aid.

He was promptly taken to a nearby hospital, where, upon arrival, a doctor declared him dead.

The police later transported his body for post-mortem, and the doctors in their reports confirmed a heart attack as the cause of death.

According to an initial assessment, Vikas, who was previously healthy but had been a COVID victim, maintained fitness by frequently playing cricket in Noida and Delhi.

Over recent years, there has been a surge in heart attack cases among the younger population. Globally, heart disease is a prominent cause of death, and its incidence has notably escalated in India over the last five years.

This increase in cardiac events is linked to our fast-paced lifestyles and evolving habits, analysts say. Previously associated primarily with older individuals, heart attacks are now impacting a significant number of people between the ages of 30 and 40.
