Ishan Kishan had immediately removed his helmet after suffering the huge blow before India’s medical team ran to the field for the concussion test. Lahiru Kumara, too, checked Ishan Kishan as well to see if there was anything serious injury. However, Kishan stayed in the middle and continued to bat, however, he was dismissed in the next over of the same bowler.
