Prior to miss rest of India series due to injuries

LONDON: England wicket-keeper Matt Prior has taken an immediate break from the national duty due to a set of injuries and will not be part of the remainder of the Test series against India.

Prior’s decision came after England suffered a crushing 95-run defeat at the hands of the visitors. The wicket-keeper batsman said he tore his quad before the first Test and apart from a hand injury an Achilles problem has forced him to take the decision.
“As it stands now, I’ll miss three Test matches, and then I’ll do my utmost to get fit and ready for the back-end of the winter. It is a huge decision and not one I have taken lightly obviously, because I could have played my last game,” Prior said, announcing his decision.-PTI
