Rinku Singh sustained a low back spasm while fielding in the 1st T20I against England, ruling him out of the second and third matches of the five-game series, the BCCI confirmed on Saturday.

Ramandeep Singh has been named as Rinku’s replacement.

“He is progressing well and the BCCI medical team is monitoring him closely. He is ruled out of the 2nd and 3rd games of the ongoing 5-match T20I series,” the BCCI said in a statement.
