New Zealand fast bowler Matt Fisher has replaced Blair Tickner as a concussion substitute during the second ODI against India in Wellington. Tickner suffered a blow to the helmet from Indian pacer Anshul Kamboj shortly before the hosts were bowled out for just 134 in 41 overs.
Indian captain Shubman Gill won the toss and elected to bowl on Saturday, November 7. India's fast bowlers troubled the hosts and picked up wickets at regular intervals after rain reduced the contest to 47 overs per side. Gurnoor Brar led the attack with career-best figures of 4/30.
Matt Fisher Replaces Blair Tickner as New Zealand's Concussion Substitute
Matt Fisher became New Zealand's first concussion substitute in men's ODIs after the medical staff approved Tickner's replacement. Both Tickner and Kyle Jamieson suffered blows to their helmets during the final stages of New Zealand's innings.
Kamboj struck Tickner on the side of his helmet before bowling him to end the innings. Earlier, Brar had hit Jamieson on the helmet during his impressive spell.
New Zealand had also been bowled out for 185 in the series opener in Auckland. Their total of 134 in Wellington marked the first time since January-February 2001 that the team had scored fewer than 200 in consecutive ODIs in a bilateral series. They had last suffered a similar run against Sri Lanka.
