New Zealand pacer Will O’Rourke ruled out of India tour with injuries

New Delhi, Oct 10 (UNI) New Zealand fast bowler Will O’Rourke has been ruled out of the upcoming home series against India as he continues to recover from injuries to his left hamstring and calf.
O’Rourke had returned to action earlier this year after spending seven months on the sidelines with a back stress fracture. However, he suffered a hamstring tear on the final day of New Zealand’s third Test against England, which the hosts won to clinch the series 2-1. He subsequently strained his calf during a training session in late August.
New Zealand head coach Rob Walter said the team had decided to give the 25-year-old more time to recover rather than risk an early return ahead of a demanding international schedule.
