England batsman Will Jack has been ruled out of the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) after sustaining an injury during the limited-overs series in Bangladesh.
The 24-year-old Jaques was picked up by Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the IPL auction in December for Rs 3.2 crore.
He suffered a hamstring injury while fielding in England’s second ODI against Bangladesh in Mirpur earlier this month, reported ESPNcricinfo.
He said, “Earlier this week, he had to withdraw from the upcoming season of IPL after scans (tests) and consultation with experts.”
According to this report, RCB is trying to include Michael Bracewell of New Zealand in the team in place of Jack. Bracewell had entered the IPL auction with a base amount of 1 crore but his name was not bid by any team.
RCB team will start their campaign against Mumbai Indians on 2nd April.
