England v West Indies: Kemar Roach ruled out of tour with injury
West Indies bowler Kemar Roach has been ruled out of next month’s Test tour of England with a knee injury.
Seamer Roach, 35, is one of West Indies’ leading pace bowlers and has taken 270 wickets in 81 Tests.

The first Test will also be veteran bowler James Anderson’s last for England.
