Following the results of last night’s scan, England top-order batsman Zak Crawley has been ruled out of the first two Tests against India.
Scan results have confirmed that Crawley has jarred his right wrist, which has sprained the joint and led to local inflammation.
“He sustained the injury during England’s practice in Chennai on Tuesday when he slipped on the marble floor leaving the dressing rooms onto the field of play.” a ECB release on Thursday said.
“The England medical team will continue to assess his progress over the next few weeks.”
