India wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan has been ruled out of the 3rd T20I against Sri Lanka after being struck on the helmet in the second T20I in Dharamsala.

Kishan was taken to the hospital last night for a check-up and CT scans were conducted, the BCCI said in a press statement.

“The findings of the CT scan are normal. The BCCI Medical Team will continue to closely monitor his signs of concussion,” read the statement.

Ishan was hit on the helmet by Lahiru Kumara in the fourth over of the innings but the 23-year-old kept batting on.

India had previously added another opener in Mayank Agarwal to the squad after Ruturaj Gaikwad was out of the series due to an injury.
