The Sri Lanka innings ended in utter chaos for Bangladesh with three players falling injured in the last three overs, with Mustafiruz Rahman and substitute fielder Jaker Ali getting stretchered off the field and Soumya Sarkar hurting his neck while fielding and won't be taking part for the rest of the match.

Soumya, who bowled the 48th over of the innings after Mustafizur couldn't finish the over and was carried off the field on a stretcher, hurt his neck while fielding on the boundary in the final over. Soumya won't be able to bat in the Bangladesh chase and the management has named Tanzid Hasan Tamim as his concussion substitute.

"Soumya fell hard while attempting to save a boundary and also hit the advertisement billboard. His head hit the ground in the process and he felt stiffness in the neck and also complained of a headache and vision difficulties," BCB physio Bayjedul Islam Khan was quoted in a media release.

"A SCAT5 assessment was done when he came off. He has also hurt his left knee. We had applied for a concussion replacement and this has been approved," he added.

Meanwhile, substitute fielder Jaker, who collided with Anamul Haque in the final over while trying to take a catch and was taken off the field on a stretcher, has hurt his neck and is receiving medical treatment, informed BCB in the media release.

Moreover, on-field umpire Richard Kettleborough has also left the field, unable to continue due to the excessive heat, and has been replaced by fourth umpire Tanvir Ahmed.
