Former India Cricketer Vinod Kambli Shares Health Update From Thane Care Home

A viral video from Thane’s Nidan Centre for Elderly Care shows former India cricketer Vinod Kambli thanking staff and praising the facility’s cleanliness, care and affection, saying it feels like home. The footage has prompted concern among fans because Kambli appears frail and has faced significant health challenges, including heart problems, brain clots, infections and difficulty walking. Reports say he has received support from former cricket colleagues, while Kambli’s message offered reassurance that he is being cared for.
Kambli was hospitalized in Thane in December 2024 with low blood pressure and a urinary tract infection; doctors also found electrolyte imbalances that contributed to cramps and mobility problems. He was discharged in January 2025 after about two weeks of treatment.
Kambli attended the 2026 IPL match between Mumbai Indians and Sunrisers Hyderabad at Wankhede Stadium. The report said he needed help from two people to walk.
Kambli scored 1,084 runs in 17 Tests at an average of 54.20, including four centuries, and was reported to be the fastest Indian to reach 1,000 Test runs, doing so in 14 innings.
