HISTORICAL FACTS: Jack leach withdrawn from nz test match with concussion after fielding incident - The Untold Story

England spinner Jack Leach has been ruled out of the remainder of the first Test against New Zealand after he suffered a concussion while fielding.

After diving to stop a four, Leach landed awkwardly over the boundary and was immediately tended to by the New Zealand medical team. The spinner was able to get back to his feet after a few minutes and walked off the field to be assessed.

Unfortunately, Leach suffered a concussion and has been withdrawn from the Test as a result. Matt Parkinson will now make his Test debut, having been named as a concussion replacement for Leach.
