3.5 Wahab Riaz to Ingram, no run, Colin Ingram has been hit on the head, this is not looking good. The ball was a swift bouncer, and he turned his head as the ball rose up at him to be struck on the side of the helmet, right by his ear. As Riaz walks up to him with a look of concern, Ingram's legs wobbled and he lost his balance. He looks groggy, and the physio sprints out ... Ingram eventually settles, and he's drinking some water, but surely he'll have to go off. Well, no, he's going to bat on.

Yeah I read that piece. it appears that players now are less inclined to sway away from the line of the ball because of the 'protective' helmets. The technic is lost on some
