The India keeper-batter suffered a blow to the helmet while batting in the second match on Saturday
A BCCI statement, released on Sunday, said the scan’s findings were normal. “The BCCI Medical Team,” the statement said, “will continue to closely monitor his signs of concussion.”
The incident occurred in the fourth over of India’s chase on Saturday, when Kishan was beaten by a sharp bouncer from Lahiru Kumara. The impact of the delivery had Kishan taking off his helmet even as the Sri Lankan fielders gathered around him. Kishan batted on for three more deliveries before being dismissed for a 15-ball 16.
In the absence of Kishan, India may turn to Sanju Samson to keep wicket and to Mayank Agarwal to open the batting.
A seven-wicket win over on Saturday gave India a 2-0 lead and their 11th successive T20I victory, a run that started at the World Cup last year following twin losses to Pakistan and New Zealand.
1139 GMT The article was updated with confirmation that Kishan would miss the third T20I.
