Idea of injury replacement is absolutely ridiculous: Ben Stokes
Reacting to the ongoing debate around injury replacements sparked by Rishabh Pant's foot fracture in Manchester Test, England captain Ben Stokes said the idea is "absolutely ridiculous". Adding that the conversation should be "shut down and stopped", Stokes stated that such a rule would create "too many loopholes" for teams. Currently, only like-for-like concussion substitutes are fully allowed.
