Matt Parkinson out of Ireland ODI series with ankle injury

The leg-spinner sprained his left ankle on Monday, with scans revealing that he will be unable to take any further part in the series

Matt Parkinson has been ruled out of England’s ODI series against Ireland.

The leg-spinner sprained his left ankle on Monday, with scans revealing that he will be unable to take any further part in the series.

He will leave the bio-secure bubble on Tuesday.

Parkinson had initially been part of England’s 30-man enlarged Test squad ahead of the three-match series against West Indies.

He dismissed Ben Stokes in the intra-squad warmup match at the Ageas Bowl but, with Dom Bess and Jack Leach ahead of him in the pecking order, joined up with Eoin Morgan’s white-ball party ahead of Ireland’s visit.
