Hamstring tear rules Bravo out of WC
West Indies batsman Darren Bravo has been ruled out of the rest of the World Cup due to a hamstring injury he suffered in their second match of the tournament against Pakistan.
Bravo was initially ruled out for the next two matches, against Zimbabwe and South Africa, but after scans revealed a tear, the left-handed batsman has been ruled out of the entire campaign.
After getting duck in the in the Windies' first match of the tournament, a defeat against Ireland, Bravo scored 49 before he was injured trying to take a quick single against Pakistan.
The West Indies Players Association (WIPA) tweeted: "Darren Bravo has been ruled out of the World Cup and will be replaced in the West Indies squad. Get well soon."
The West Indies will announce a replacement for Bravo later this week.
