Concussion controversy: Who said what as India captain keeps mum after 4th T20I

India Today  

Neither Suryakumar Yadav nor Jos Buttler were asked about the concussion substitute controversy that took place in the 4th T20I of the 5-match series between India and England on Friday, January 31. However, it left a sour taste for the visiting side after India opted to field Harshit Rana as a concussion substitute for Shivam Dube in the second innings of the game. Rana, a specialist fast bowler on debut, picked up 3 crucial wickets in India's defence of 181 runs, helping the side win the game and, in turn, clinch the series. "We started brilliantly, taking lots of wickets, and at the end of the batting powerplay we were in a great position and I think we should have gone on to win the game," Buttler said.
