Injury Rules Andre Russell out of England T20 Series

All-rounder Andre Russell has been ruled out of the rest of the five match T20 International series against England with a left ankle sprain sustained in the opening game of the series in Barbados last Saturday.

Russell has been replaced by Barbadian all-rounder Shamar Springer, who played in the recent series in Sri Lanka.

Alzarri Joseph who recently served a two match suspension, will rejoin the squad in St. Lucia where the remaining three games will be played.

Joseph will take the place of Shamar Joseph.

England lead the series 2-0 after victories in Barbados and need only one more win to clinch the series.

Game three will be at the Darren Sammy Stadium on Thursday.
