    "editor1": "<p><strong>Ranchi, Oct 21: &nbsp;<\/strong>South Africa opener Dean Elgar has been replaced by Theunis de Bruyn as a concussion substitute. This after the opener had to retire hurt post a knock on the helmet by a rising Umesh Yadav delivery just before the Tea break on Day 3 of the third and final Test against India at the JSCA Stadium on Monday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>de Bruyn was part of the South Africa XI in the Pune Test where they lost by an innings and 137 runs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In the 10th over of South Africa&#39;s second innings, Elgar, who was batting on 16, was struck on his helmet by a fierce bouncer from Umesh. The left-handed batsman immediately went to the ground. The Indian players rushed towards him to see if he was alright while the physio ran in.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>During the break, Elgar retired hurt and was taken to a hospital for a concussion test. Debutant George Linde was sent to proceed the innings alongside Heinrich Klaasen for the final session of the day&#39;s play.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Cricket rules for the World Test Championship were tweaked recently to allow players who suffer concussions during a match to be replaced in their team&#39;s Playing XI.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The visitors are on the brink of another embarrasing defeat as they got bowled out for a mere 162 in their first innings in reply to India&#39;s 497\/9 declared. In the second innings also they are in trouble having lost four wickets before the tea interval.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
