GROS-ISLET—West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell was ruled out of the Digicel Twenty20 International Series against Australia due to injury. The 23-year-old Russell has been diagnosed with a minor, right lateral hamstring strain.
Russell played through the pain barrier in the recent Digicel One-day International Series, which ended level 2-2. He played some important knocks with 113 runs off 111 balls in four innings. He also took six wickets at 26.33 runs each, with best figures of 4-61 in the fifth and final Digicel ODI. No replacement player was named for yesterday’s Digicel T20 at Beausejour. The West Indies squad for the second Digicel T20 will be named today.
