Jason Roy Suffered an Injury During England’s Defeat in their Final Super 12 Game Against South Africa

Jason Roy suffered an injury during England’s defeat in their final Super 12 game against South Africa, grabbing a muscle while fielding first, scoring a run in the fifth over of his chase before going limp. He retired hurt after scoring a total of 20 off 15 balls and was out on the field with the support of Tom Curran, a physio and one of England’s substitute fielders.

Scans on Sunday confirmed the tear and it became clear that he would not be able to recover in time to take part in the knockout stages.

“I’m sad to be out of the World Cup,” says Jason Roy. “It’s a bitter pill to swallow. I’ll stay on to support the boys and hopefully we can go all the way and lift the trophy. It’s been an incredible journey so far. And we have to express ourselves.” Do and continue to focus on us.

England Could Replace Jason Roy With Vince in a Similar Swap

England could replace Jason Roy with Vince in a similar swap. But Sam Billings – an unused squad member – is more likely to get into his middle order. Who is promoting Jonny Bairstow or David Malan to open. They will also look to bring in a seam-bowling all-rounder as a replacement for Jason Roy soon. Either David Willey or Tom Curran to bat at No 7 or 8.

With Ben Stokes, Sam Curran, Jofra Archer and Tymal Mills already lacking four first-choice squad members due to injury or unavailability, it would be hard to feel the loss of Roy. England captain Eoin Morgan said after the match against South Africa that Jason Roy was “incredibly important” to the team.

“He’s the kind of person who embodies everything about the changing room and the way we play,” Morgan said. “You see how commanding he is at the top of the order. He’s as close as we anticipate to how the changing room should play out. We’re disappointed for Jess, but also half-hopefully he’s okay.” The stages of a tournament for someone to miss the latter – especially when there are too many people in two games. It spoils the mood [in the dressing room].

“You’ve got through to names that aren’t here either because of injury or other reasons. Archer, Stokes, Sam Curran, Tymal … you look at the time you’ve really explored and tried to build a team And I’m sitting here thankful that we’ve done that because we need those guys in the next game and probably in the final.
