INTERNATIONAL BUREAU —England ​batter Jacob Bethell will miss the white-ball tour of Australia after a setback ‌in his recovery from a knee injury, the England ‌and Wales Cricket Board ⁠said ​on Wednesday. The ​23-year-old has ‌not played since England's one-day ​series win over India in July, having suffered discomfort in ⁠his knee while scoring 91 at Lord's. ‌ He had surgery in September and travelled to Australia in anticipation of a return, ⁠but a ⁠scan has ruled him ​out ‌of the tour.

"Jacob Bethell has been ruled out of the white-ball tour of Australia following a scan on his right knee," the ECB said. England ⁠have called up James Coles and Eddie ⁠Jack to the ODI squad as replacements for Bethell and fast bowler Josh Tongue, who was already out with a left big toe injury. England begin the three-match ⁠ODI series on Friday ​before playing five Twenty20 internationals.

They then travel to South Africa for a test series starting on ​December 17
