England’s Wood to miss Sri Lanka tour with injury

Fast bowler Mark Wood has been ruled out of England’s test tour of Sri Lanka next month with a side strain, the England and Wales Cricket Board said on Friday.

Wood picked up the injury at the end of the South Africa tour earlier this month and underwent scans in London, which confirmed a small tear to his left side.

Lancashire seamer Saqib Mahmood will replace Wood in the squad for the two-test series, which begins in Galle on March 19.
