England star Liam Livingstone ruled out of Pakistan tour with knee injury

Liam Livingstone will head home early from the Pakistan tour due to the knee injury he picked up while fielding on his debut.

In a sad and cruel twist of fate the Lancashire all rounder was just hours into his first Test match when he jarred his right knee in the field on the second day of the match. Livingstone was due to play a full role as a spinning all rounder, but he was unable to bowl with the injury and has spent the majority of the match with Keaton Jennings fielding in his place.

He did try to bowl during the team warm up on day three but after sending down a few balls confidently and declaring himself ready to go, the knee locked up once more and he has been in pain and discomfort ever since.
