GLENN THRILLER

JACK LEACH has been ruled out of the rest of England’s Test tour of India with a left knee injury.

The 32-year-old (above) picked up the injury during England’s first Test victory in Hyderabad, where he was forced to play a restricted role and subsequently missed the second Test in

Vizag.

His absence saw Somerset team-mate

(right) come into the side, where he picked up four wickets on his international debut.

Bashir was joined by Rehan

Ahmed and Tom

Hartley in

England’s spin attack, with the trio holding only three caps between them going into the second

Test.

The series resumes in Rajkot on Thursday tied at 1-1 following India’s 106-run victory in Vizag.

England will not be calling up a replacement and Leach will now return home. In a statement, the England and Wales Cricket Board said: “He will fly home from Abu Dhabi in the next 24 hours, where the England team have been staying ahead of the third Test in Rajkot, which starts on Thursday.

“Leach will work closely with the England and Somerset medical teams in respect of his rehabilitation.”

GLENN MAXWELL’S brilliance helped Australia secure a series win over the West Indies.

Maxwell (right) smashed an unbeaten 120 off just 55 balls as the hosts reached 241-4 off their 20 overs in Adelaide.

West Indies never looked like reaching the huge target despite Rovman Powell’s quickfire 63 off 36 deliveries.

There was a bizarre moment near the end of the Windies’ innings as Spencer Johnson appeared to clearly run out Alzarri Joseph.

The umpires ruled Australia had not appealed, so Joseph could not be given out.
