Ireland prop Jeremy Loughman should not have been allowed to return to the field after suffering concussion symptoms against the Maori All Blacks, New Zealand Rugby (NZR) has concluded.
Jasprit Bumrah became India's 36th Test captain after being named skipper for the fifth rescheduled Test against England, starting on Friday. Bumrah is the fast bowler since Kapil Dev in 1987 to be named captain of the Indian cricket Test team. Regular captain Rohit Sharma failed to recover in time from COVID-19 and was on Thursday ruled out of the Edgbaston Test after his RAT returned positive again. Bumrah has not captained in any First-class, List A or Indian Premier League match before, and it will be fascinating to see how he goes about things in the all-important fifth Test.
Last year proved to be historic for the All Blacks and not in a good way: three Test defeats was their worst run of form since 2009.
What a week it has been, and the Test series is still a day away.
Ireland prop Jeremy Loughman should not have returned to play in Wednesday's match against the Maori All Blacks after suffering a head knock in the opening minutes, New Zealand Rugby (NZR) said on Friday.
Cian Healy is set to take his place on the Ireland bench for tomorrow's first Test against New Zealand after coming through this morning’s captain’s run unscathed.
New Zealand Rugby on Friday conceded medical staff made a mistake by allowing Jeremy Loughman to play on in a tour match against the Maori All Blacks, despite the Ireland prop displaying clear concussion symptoms.
The rescheduled fifth Test between India and England will get underway on Friday at Edgbaston, Birmingham and it would be interesting to see whether India are able to win the Pataudi Trophy or not. Jasprit Bumrah would be leading India after Rohit Sharma failed to recover in time after testing positive for COVID-19. The focus would also be on Virat Kohli, who has not registered a century in international cricket since November 2019.
