but one things i did not understand is that when Liton Das was injured another player came out to bat who was not in the team, when did this rule changed as they start allowing substitute players and Mehidy Hasan came out to bat, so if Liton Das gets better whether he will be allowed back in the team to play or Mehidy Hasan will continue.

One more doubt is that, is there a rule change in Test cricket that they can have a substitute player if someone is injured, during Ashes second Test i saw Marnus Labuschagne coming in to bat instead of Smith as he was injured and i did not see them announcing the 12th man, can they select anyone in the squad randomly, anyone having any idea regarding that.
Yeah, this is new rule under only concussion replacement - suspected concussion replacement. where substitute can bat, ball or WK in this scenario
ICC Approves Like-for-like Substitution for Concussion in All International CricketIn a landmark decision, the International Cricket Council has approved a like-for-like concussion substitute in men's and women's international cricket and first-class cricket worldwide from August 1, the start of the first Ashes Test.
The decision was taken after a two-year trial of concussion replacements in Australia's domestic cricket competition, the Sheffield Shield. A player who has been concussed either while batting, bowling or on the field can be withdrawn from the game and be replaced subject to approval by the match referee.
The ICC stated that the decision on replacement will be made by the respective team's medical representative.
