Will Pucovski Retires Hurt After Being Struck By Bouncer In Sheffield Shield Match
New South Wales: Australia batter Will Pucovski was forced to retire hurt after being struck on the head by a bouncer in his team Victoria’s ongoing Sheffield Shield match against Tasmania at the Bellerive Oval in Hobart, adding to his long history of dealing with concussions.
Facing fast-bowler Riley Meredith, Pucovski took his eyes off a short ball and was hit flush on the helmet while trying to duck it. He immediately fell on the ground and looked in huge discomfort as doctors came running out on the field.
Few minutes later, Pucovski was on his feet and walked off the ground gingerly while holding his head, retiring hurt for zero. Victoria later announced that Campbell Kellaway has replaced Pucovski as a concussion substitute for the remainder of the match.
