Jadeja also had a hamstring injury and would not have bowled if not for the concussion. Technically, like for like would mean, someone who would not have bowled !

That's what I was thinking too. Somehow I believe it was against sportsmanship. We took advantage of concussion rule. Everyone could see that Jadeja was barely able to run.

Virat Kohli "Jaddu got a knock on the side of a head and was a bit dizzy and still is. Concussion replacements are a strange thing, today it worked for us maybe another time he wouldn't have found a like-for-like. He came in and bowled really well.

What worries me is that he wasn't attended by physio immediately. Someone should be questioned internally within indian team staff.

I think India did nothing wrong today, played by the rules. 

Anyway loopholes in rules getting exposed in useless bilaterals, what is there not to like about what transpired today? Rather here than in a WC KO. Said the same about Ashwin's mankading in IPL. Don't blame the players, let ICC tighten the rules and regulations.

Correct move. Within the rules and Umpires allowed it.

 

But if Australia did this half the board would be screaming murder.

I think he should be sent for CT scan and held for observation overnight. Standard protocol.

Also the concussion ball was not a beamer/bouncer. Jadeja actually topedged it on to the helmet !

what the fark does that have to do with the price of soy sauce in China?

He smashed the ball after for 6, then two more 4s

He got hit at 19.2 19.3 was Sundar's wicket and the last 3 balls were 4 4 1. So 9 runs after that hit

Brilliant from Kohli and co., loved the look on Langer's face

+1. Jaddu was almost caught off that ball and as soon as the ball was dropped, he must have been relieved and forgot that he got hit on the head. It looks like the physio also got caught up in the moment and forgot his duty. I don't know what the rules are, but maybe the on field umpire should have been proactive and called for the physio?  This is a big miss and should not be allowed to happen again.

Moody's take on this issue is the most reasonable one.

[maniac]

Fair game. Within the rules. For once something smart by the TM and out of the box thinking.

Chahal should have been in 11 ahead of Manish Pandey anyways. Agarwal also in for Dhawan

Its  also fascinating to watch how sycophants try to pin every little thing which goes wrong on Coach and Captain.

google search provides an easy way to look up words and what they mean, fyi.  

 

Pray tell who exactly am I "sycophantic" towards, just so I know what you are so sadly trying to insinuate?
