New Zealand pace bowler Adam Milne has been ruled out of the remainder ODI Series in England with a low-grade hamstring injury.
Milne suffered hamstring tightness at training in Cardiff before yesterday's opening ODI and a subsequent scan revealed he would need a period of rehabilitation.

Milne, who is also selected in the ODI Squad to travel to Bangladesh, will remain with the squad in England to work on his rehabilitation.

Head coach Gary Stead said having cover in the squad was important with the compact nature of the schedule.
"We have short turnarounds between these matches and want to try and look after the players as much as possible with the upcoming schedule. With Ben already here in England it meant we could have him join the squad at short notice without the recovery time of a bowler joining from New Zealand mid-series."
"Ben impressed us in the UAE and warm-up matches in England and will continue to learn being around some senior players in the touring group."
Milne's injury means left-armer Ben Lister will now join the squad in Southampton today.
