Will Jacks has had a setback as he attempts to push his way into England’s World Cup reckoning after he was ruled out of the remainder of the tour of Bangladesh with a thigh injury. The 24-year-old all-rounder made his first one-day international appearance in Mirpur last week to complete a full set of international debuts within the space of six months, but injury now looks likely to apply the brakes to his ascent.
With Jacks out, the series won and spin reinforcement required – England bowled 46.2 overs of it across the first two games of the series, through Jacks, Moeen Ali and Adil Rashid – Rehan Ahmed is likely to make his international white-ball debut in the final ODI on Monday. The 18-year-old was ruled out of the first game through illness but has fully recovered, impressing in recent training sessions.
