England spinner Adil Rashid is ruled out of the upcoming ODI series against Sri Lanka due to a hand injury. Multiple reports say the injury prevents him from taking part in the limited-overs matches.
According to the Independent, Rashid undergoes a scan on Monday as part of the assessment process. The Belfast Telegraph and Winnipeg Free Press also report that he is expected to miss the series, describing it as the entire ODI run rather than only an initial part of it.
The outlets differ mainly in emphasis: some frame the update as him being ruled out of the series, while others specify that he misses the complete ODI schedule. None of the reports indicate a return date, focusing instead on the injury assessment and the immediate impact on England’s ODI plans.
