• Smith not fit to play after being hit by bouncer at Lord’s• Sports minister Nigel Adams says booing of Smith ‘distasteful’
Steve Smith has been ruled out of Thursday’s third Ashes Test at Headingley following the delayed concussion inflicted by a Jofra Archer short ball.
Australia’s premier batsman was struck on the neck while batting on day four of the draw at Lord’s and though he resumed his innings 40 minutes later – initial concussion tests were passed – the next morning saw Smith report headaches and dizziness.
