The young batter’s promising performances had made him a key part of England’s plans, but the injury setback has ruled him out of the marquee event.Banton, who also replaced Bethell in the ongoing ODI series against India, has earned his call-up on the back of scintillating form in the International League T20 (ILT20) in the UAE.The wicketkeeper-batter has been the tournament’s standout performer, amassing 493 runs from 11 innings.
