England suffer injury blow as Joe Denly is ruled out of five-match T20I series against New Zealand
SETBACK:
England batsman Joe Denly has been ruled out of the rest of England's five-match Twenty20 International series against New Zealand after damaging a ligament in his ankle during practice on Thursday.
The England management have not summoned a replacement for the 33-year-old Kent batsman, who sustained ligament damage to his right ankle during the practice session.
With that said, Denly missed the opening match on Friday, which England won by seven wickets. The next match is to be played in Wellington on Sunday at 01:00 GMT.
However, the top-order batsman has not yet been sidelined of the Test leg of the tour, which begins at Mount Maunganui on Thursday, 21 November.
