Caddick injury blow for England

13 April 2012

England fast bowler Andy Caddick has been ruled out of the first two matches of the triangular NatWest Series which starts at Edgbaston tomorrow.

Caddick is suffering with a back muscle problem and will miss the games with Pakistan at Edgbaston and Australia in Bristol on Sunday.

The target for Caddick's return is the second one-day match with Pakistan at Lord's on Tuesday and England are seeking an extra bowler to add to the 14-man squad.

England coach Duncan Fletcher said: "He's had it before and managed to bowl through it and it's settled down. It just hasn't settled."
