Olly Stone has been ruled out of The Hundred with a hamstring injury.

The quick had been picked up by London Spirit for £100,000 during the Men's Hundred draft in March.

According to ESPNCricinfo, Surrey bowler Dan Worrall, who qualifies as a local player, is being lined up as a replacement.

Stone's injury first flared up at the beginning of May when he was bowling for Nottinghamshire against Lancashire in the County Championship, with a five or six-week stint on the sidelines expected.

He returned to action during Nottinghamshire's T20 Blast clash with Birmingham Bears on June 30 but bowled just three balls before leaving the field.

Stone has made 66 T20 appearances across his career, taking 67 wickets with an economy of 8.71.

The right-armer was on the books of Birmingham Phoenix in 2022 but failed to make an appearance due to injury. He is yet to make his debut in the 100-ball competition.
