ICC Accused of 'Corruption' Over Concussion Substitution Row
The Statesman Siliguri
|February 04, 2025
The debate over India's choice of Harshit Rana coming in as a concussion substitute for Shivam Dube in the fourth T20I on Friday refused to die down with Chris Broad, one of the decorated International Cricket Council (ICC) match referees, alleging the International Cricket Council (ICC) of "bias and corruption."
Dube, who had scored a half-century, was struck on the head by Jamie Overton on the penultimate delivery of India's innings. Head coach Gautam Gambhir then effectively used the concussion protocol to field Rana in place of Dube, who bowls at speeds in the early 120 km/h range, much slower to that of the former.
Rana, on debut, took 3 for 33, and India won the match by 15 runs, clinching the T20 series with a match to spare. Broad, posting on X about the matter, said, "Independent match officials were brought in to stop situations like this! Why are the ICC returning to the 'bad old days' of bias and corruption?"
