'Groggy' Smith out of second Ashes Test final day with concussion

Australia's Steve Smith has been ruled out of the last day of the second Ashes Test with concussion against England at Lord's, saying he felt "groggy" on Sunday morning.

Smith was felled when a Jofra Archer bouncer struck his neck on Saturday.

"I started to feel a little bit of a headache coming on last night as the adrenaline got out of my system but I was able to get a good night's sleep in, but I woke up feeling a bit groggy and with a headache again," Smith said.

"I had some tests done and then some further assessments deemed to be a mild concussion, so I've been ruled out of this Test match unfortunately."
- 'Right decision' -
====================
But the Australia spokesman defended the decision to let Smith resume batting by saying: "It is not uncommon for players to pass their tests and feel well on the day of an injury and then display symptoms 24-48 hours later."
Smith had no qualms about being withdrawn from the match, saying: "I think the right decision has been made."
"It's certainly an area of concern, concussion, and I want to be 100 percent fit. There's obviously a few tests I have to tick off and time will tell."
