England were dealt a huge blow to their chances in the upcoming 2022 T20 World Cup on Friday as Jonny Bairstow suffered an injury due to a "freak accident" while playing golf. "England and Yorkshire batter Jonathan Bairstow has been ruled out of the rest of the summer and the ICC Men's T20 World Cup," the English cricket board revealed in its statement. The injury means Bairstow is ruled out for the foreseeable future. Bairstow himself took to Instagram to state that he won't be available for selection in "the immediate future". "Unfortunately I am going to be unavailable of all games/tours in the immediate future. The reason being is that I have injured by lower leg in a freak accident and it shall need an operation," Bairstow wrote.

Twenty20 World Cup in Australia beginning next month. Roy has been an integral part of England's white-ball squad and his explosive batting at the top of the order embodied the team's aggressive approach as they won their maiden 50-overs World Cup title in 2019. The 32-year-old has struggled for runs this summer and hit 76 runs in total in his last six Twenty20 Internationals which made his position untenable for the World Cup and the preceding seven-match Twenty20 series in Pakistan.
