England's Jonny Bairstow ruled out of T20 World Cup through injury
Jonny Bairstow was ruled out of the Twenty20 World Cup due to an injury, while out-of-form opener Jason Roy was dropped from the squad for the tournament in Australia beginning next month. Bairstow was initially included in the selection but the England and Wales Cricket Board later said he had been ruled out of the rest of the summer and the T20 World Cup after suffering a lower limb injury in a freak accident while playing golf in Leeds on Friday. Bairstow said in a post on Instagram that he was injured after slipping on the golf course and that he would need to undergo an operation.
