Media Release Gautam Gambhir fell backwards and banged his head against the ground while fielding on 20th August 2011, in the final Test vs England at the Oval. He was diagnosed of mild concussion by the attending sports physician and neurologist. He was sent for a precautionary CT and MRI scan of his head and neck which was reported as normal. He has been resting since and his symptoms have improved. However, he still complains of some visual disturbance and inability to focus on an object for long. The ophthalmologist (eye specialist) has reported Gautam’s eyes as perfectly normal and the symptoms have been put down to the mild concussion. Gautam has been advised to take rest and is expected to recover spontaneously without any further medical intervention. He will be returning to India shortly. Ravindra Jadeja has been chosen as his replacement. Suresh Raina has been nominated as Vice-Captain for the ODI series. N. Srinivasan Hony. Secretary & President-Elect BCCI
