New Delhi: The four-Test series is not taking the name of reducing difficulties for Australia in the Border-Gavaskar series. Veteran opener David Warner has now been ruled out of the ongoing second Test here. Matt Renshaw will be Warner’s concussion substitute. This information was given after the paperwork was completed with the ICC just before the start of the second day’s play on Saturday. Warner was attacked fiercely on the body by the Indian bowlers on the first day of the match. Siraj had hit a ball on his arm and then on a hamlet, after which this swashbuckling opener was left with only 15 runs.

Australian batsmen are considered experts in playing short balls and bouncers.

On the first day of the game, Mohammad Siraj stunned Warner fiercely. Troubled a lot Never let it set. First targeted the elbow and sometimes the helmet, Warner was uncomfortable for a long time after the injury and the physio had to get on the field.

Siraj hit the fourth ball of the 8th over of the innings, which Warner wanted to play but missed. He was seen moaning in pain after being hit on the elbow. The injury was so severe that Warner was seen wiping his eyes again and again. Later, Warner started preparing to play by spraying his hand. After this, the last ball of the 10th over was a bouncer, which directly hit his helmet. Again the physio had to get on the field to check the concussion, from which it seemed that Warner was having trouble playing.
