WATCH: Matt Renshaw suffers nasty blow on helmet
New Delhi: David Warner stole the headlines on the day 1 of the third Test match against Pakistan but 20-year-old Matt Renshaw’s innings will also go down the history.
Renshaw scored a maiden century in his just fourth Test and century on his debut at the Sydney Cricket Ground. But his innings is more incredible knowing that he got smacked on the head by a bouncer while in 90s.
Here's a look at the damage to Matt Renshaw's helmet from the Amir bouncer earlier.

Facing Pacer Mohammad Amir, Renshaw leaned backwards to avoid the short delivery, but the ball jagged back into the left hander and caught him flush on the grill of his helmet.
This incident refreshed memories of Phil Hughes who lost his life at the same venue.
