But being pressured to play through any other injury is all good

I think the idea is:
1. They won't get sued
2. As a less obvious injury, concussion is a lot easier for teams to cover up. And the effects of CTE are long term, so short-term thinking will usually prevail. The sub removes the incentive to do so.

Playing through another injury usually means you're prolonging recovery time. That's the stick that hasn't been there for brain injuries.

Of course Naser and KP are all for the short balls being called wide…today

 

[Tugga27]

Well that was an interesting moment but it's passed and I'm sure we won't hear about it again

 

[Biggie]

Odd wicket, makes up for the Starc decision

 

[ep2018]

Suck shit England.

 

[UseR2006]

Ahh Bairstow is a moron.
Walking out of his crease like an idiot.

 

[W.C. Fry]

Same old pommies, always whinging.

 

[UseR2006]

hahahaha and now bat throwing.

 

[Ochre]

There's an irony to the crowd booing an appeal when Broads batting.

 

[Goroyals22]

Stokes is going to win this game for England because of this short pitched bowling… especially from a pie chucker like green

Worrying

 

[UseR2006]

Green is an idiot, should have stopped bowling short to stokes last over.
Getting smashed now.

 

[matthew_s]

****ing hell green. throwing this game with bat and ball

Deserves to be dropped.

 

[ep2018]

You're telling me the bloke who won them an ODI and T20 final in recent years, and won them an Ashes test last away series might be good under pressure?

 

[Ochre]

When Stokes is in T20 mode, why would you have Green on, moronic captaincy

 

[Monocle]

FFS Green ........... any chance of some control.

Time for a change or Stokes will plunder all the runs off Green.

Its not been a good test match for Green.

38 runs off two overs.

 

[Ochre]

Why not bowl like it's a ****ing short form game if Stokes is gonna play like it is one

Slower balls, Yorkers etc
