Crawley & Pennington Ruled Out Of England’s Tests Against Sri Lanka; Cox Gets Maiden Call-up
County Championship Division One: Zak Crawley and Dillon Pennington have been ruled out of England’s squad for their three-match Test series against Sri Lanka, starting from August 21 at Manchester.
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said Crawley will miss the series due to a fractured right little finger sustained in England’s third Test victory over the West Indies at Edgbaston, while Pennington also misses out after sustaining a hamstring injury while playing in The Hundred competition for the Northern Superchargers.
Crawley’s injury means he will now be building up to return to England’s squad for their three-match Test tour of Pakistan in October. For now, in his absence for the Sri Lanka series, Dan Lawrence is all set to open the batting for England alongside Ben Duckett.
