#4 Paul Reiffel's freak injury

Paul Reiffel collapses after being struck on the head

Paul Reiffel, officiating as the onfield umpire in the Wankhede Test, had to be taken off the field after being hit on the head by a throw from Bhuvneshwar Kumar. He was sent to the hospital for scans and was advised to rest for the day.

The incident occurred in the 49th over of England's innings, when Jennings hit a ball past square leg. Bhuvneshwar, standing at deep square leg, attempted to lob a throw to Pujara, who was between Reiffel and the stumps. The throw was nowhere near Pujara and came down on Reiffel, who was warned late to duck. The ball went on to hit him in the sensitive area behind the head.

Marais Erasmus, the third umpire for the game, took his place as he walked off for a medical examination. C Shamshuddin, who was in the stadium to train local umpires was moved into the third umpire's seat.
