Concussion Sub Rule


Recommended Posts

But it is not always conclusive. The rule should be that - if you are hit above the shoulder by the ball - you are off, no questions asked.

 

I would argue in the totally opposite direction. Each team should be allowed up to 2 substitutions that can be used strategically or in case of injury. So, if you use both strategically and then there is an injury ... too bad, you field with 10 guys.  

yeah main thing is all injury sub should have same rules

The concussion check can always be done. It should be done immediately and player should be off. But the sub should be like for other injuries i.e. just a fielder.

Concussion has a 72 hour window. It doesn't necessarily happen immediately. If you are going to apply this rule they have to consider that.  If not just abolish it like it was before.

The day India is on the other end of this rule and it goes against us let's hope then Indian fans wont cry and moan.

 

This is a sneaky for the 'impact sub' type of situation where the Indian team has managed to get on Harshit in place of useless bowler Dube  for concussion- and this was obvious when Ramandeep was changed after 2 overs as a sub to Rana when GG new Eng were going all guns blazing. This is underhand and IPL has corrupted the mindset of Indian cricket.

Bingo, very unsportsmanlike by India. At least one Indian ex-player has called it out.

Spot on. That has also got through to a segment of the fan base and trolling the firangis has become a dopamine fix worth any underhanded tactics. GGs gift from the IPL - the only cricket culture he's tasted success in as a "mentor".

Poor call from Srinath here. Generally, he is a very fair match referee. This seems like a poor judgement call from him. Indian team management were probably just trying their luck with Rana and were probably surprised that it got accepted. I think if there is a concussion on the field, both teams should be allowed one substitution option to make it fair. This like-for-like is always going to be controversial.

just nominate who is going to replace whom before the match and get it approved by match referee.
