England's cricket sensation, Heather Knight, has been excluded from this summer's schedule due to a hamstring injury. The cricket board remains hopeful for her return by the 2025 ICC Women's World Cup in India.
Knight, whose unbeaten 66 helped secure a 3-0 sweep over West Indies, displayed discomfort and abstained from fielding in the match's second innings.
Following an MRI, it was confirmed that Knight has sustained a significant tendon injury to her right hamstring, ruling her out of domestic cricket and The Hundred in 2025. Further evaluations will determine her path to recovery as she aims for a World Cup return.
