Jacob Bethell to miss The Hundred with a knee injury

England all-rounder Jacob Bethell, 22, has been ruled out of The Hundred after sustaining a knee injury during the recent one-day international series against India. Bethell had been named as captain of Birmingham Phoenix, a role he will now be unable to fulfil, having been retained by the franchise on a contract worth £340,000. The ECB confirmed he underwent an MRI scan on Monday, but no return date has been indicated.
