Delhi: England fast bowler Gas Atkinson is out of the upcoming three -match ODI series, which is starting against the West Indies from 29 May (Thursday). He has a problem of injury in hamstring. However, the team management hopes that they will be fit for the Test series against India. The five -match series will start from June 20.
The right -handed fast bowler suffered an injury during the only four -day Test match played against Zimbabwe, which England won by an innings and 45 runs. A spokesman for the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said, “Now he will go through the process of rehabilitation under the supervision of England’s medical team.”
Atkinson made his Test debut in July 2024. His red-ball has been a great record in cricket. The 27 -year -old bowler has played 12 Test matches so far and has taken 55 wickets at an average of 22.30. He has also scored 352 runs at an average of 23.46.
England have included left -arm fast bowler Luke Wood in the team in place of Atkinson for the series against the West Indies. Bridan cars (toe injury) and Chris Woakes (ankle injury) also could not play against Zimbabwe, but are now available by fit. At the same time, Mark Wood has been excluded from the entire series against India.
