England batsman Jonny Bairstow has confirmed on social media that he has been ruled out of the T20 WC due to an injury.

The 33-year-old has since successfully operated on his lower leg and has three weeks in rehabilitation with a view to returning to play sometime next year.

Bairstow used her Instagram account to provide an update on her injury and released some photos of her affected area.

“The actual injury was like this… a torn fibula in 3 places that required a splint, I dislocated my ankle, which meant I did a few more bits with my syndesmosis joint and lateral ligament,” Post read.

Overall I did a fair job on this:-

“Anyway… on the positive side the operation went well and I am now 3 weeks after surgery and have my staples removed. Now it is all about swelling prevention and getting my ankle moving once again.

“These next few weeks/few months are the key to recovery.”

This means Bairstow will miss England’s Test tour of Pakistan in December this year and will be in some doubt for his two-Test series in New Zealand in February 2023.

It will be part of the next ICC World Test Championship cycle:-

Next year’s Ashes series against Australia remains an important series for England as it will be part of the next ICC World Test Championship cycle.

Bairstow’s post continued, “As far as the time scale of return to sport, I’m afraid it’s too early to say, the first goal in mind is to get me back on my 2 feet again and make sure I’m back on my 2 feet. “

“One thing is for sure and that is that I will not participate in anything else during 2022… However, I can’t wait for 2023!!”
