Qais Ahmad replaces Sharafuddin Ashraf as concussion substitute in SL vs AFG 3rd T20I

In an unfortunate turn of events, Sharafuddin Ashraf had to walk off the field in the Sri Lanka vs Afghanistan 3rd T20I in Dambulla. The bowling all-rounder, who was stationed at cover point, ran back to complete an incredible catch and give Afghanistan their first breakthrough.

However, in the attempt to complete the catch, the 29-year-old hit his head on the ground. The all-rounder looked in pain but showed a good sign when he stood up and walked off the field. The fielder was then replaced by Qais Ahmad, who is a bowler by trade, unlike Sharafuddin Ashraf.
