England vs Australia: Steve Smith to undergo second concussion test after missing first ODI due to head injury

Firstpost  

Smith was sidelined from the first of a three-match series after being hit on the head batting in the nets, from a delivery by one of Australia’s fast bowlers, but rather a throw-down from a member of the coaching staff. Australia star batsman Steve Smith is set to undergo a fresh concussion test before the second one-day international against England after being ruled out of Friday’s opener at Old Trafford in bizarre fashion. An Australia team spokesman said Smith was being rested as a precaution despite passing a concussion assessment and would have another such test on Saturday ahead of Sunday’s second ODI. “Steve Smith got a knock on the head yesterday in practice so it’s a precautionary measure to leave him out,” Australia captain Aaron Finch told Sky Sports at the toss. “ Stoinis will bat at three.” Smith was dramatically felled by a 92 mph bouncer from England fast bowler Jofra Archer during last year’s drawn second Test at Lord’s, paving the way for Marnus Labuschagne to become international cricket’s first concussion substitute.
