New Delhi: Opener Phil Salt will miss England’s upcoming three-match T20I series against the West Indies after being granted paternity leave, said the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) on Thursday.
The ECB in its statement said wicketkeeper-batter Jamie Smith is now Salt’s replacement in the squad. “Salt, who is taking time away on paternity leave following the birth of his child earlier this week, will now spend time at home,” further said the ECB. IANS
