However, Cricket Victoria said he experienced &quot;delayed concussion symptoms&quot; during the Lunch break.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Dean, who replaced Finch, was batting for his Premier Cricket side Footscray at Windy Hill in Melbourne&#39;s north-west when he was told he needed to retire his innings and drive to the MCG.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The concussion substitute rule has been in place in the Sheffield Shield since the 2017-18 season and was introduced into international cricket earlier this year, with Marnus Labuschagne becoming Test cricket&#39;s first replacement player when Steve Smith was hit on the helmet by a ferocious bouncer by Jofra Archer during the Ashes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In 2014, Australian batsman Phil Hughes had passed away at the age of 25 after he was hit by a bouncer in a Sheffield Shield match between South Australia and New South Wales at the Sydney Cricket Ground. He was wearing a helmet, but the ball struck an unprotected area just below his left ear.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Hughes sustained a brain haemorrhage and died two days later without regaining consciousness at a nearby hospital.<\/p>\r\n",
