England's wicketkeeper-batsman Jos Buttler has been ruled out of their final T20 game and one-day international (ODI) series against Sri Lanka after injuring his calf muscle.
Buttler sustained the injury in the first T20 in Cardiff, where his unbeaten 68 propelled England to an eight-wicket victory. The 30-year-old missed the second game after feeling tightness in his calf and an MRI scan on Thursday confirmed he had a small muscle tear.
Dawid Malan has been added to the ODI squad for the three one-day internationals, which start on June 29.
England lead the T20 series 2-0 with the final match to be played in Southampton on Saturday. The third T20 match takes place in Southampton on Saturday.
