(UDHAYAM, COLOMBO) – Pakistan fast bowler Wahab Riaz will miss the rest of the Champions Trophy after suffering an ankle injury in the Group B defeat by India on Sunday.
Pakistan lost the rain-shortened match by 124 runs at Edgbaston.
Wahab, who had conceded 87 runs, left the field in the 46th over of India’s innings and scans confirmed the 31-year-old had a ligament problem.
Pakistan have made an official request to call up a replacement, which has yet to be approved.
They face South Africa in their second group game at Edgbaston on Wednesday.
