On-field umpire C Shamshuddin was on Tuesday ruled out for the remainder of the Ranji Trophy final after he got hit around the lower abdomen area on the opening day of the title clash between Bengal and Saurashtra. Shamshuddin could not take the field on Day 2 and went for a check-up in a local hospital after his pain aggravated. Shamshuddin’s replacement, Yashwant Barde, will join Padmanabhan on the third day.
We wish umpire C Shamshuddin a speedy recovery.
