England star James Anderson has been ruled out of the remainder of the Ashes series with a calf injury.
England’s all time leading wicket taker in this format has not bowled in the series since breaking down with the injury after delivering just four overs in Australia’s 251-run win in the first Test at Edgbaston.
The 37-year-old had tried to get fit for the fourth Test at Old Trafford starting on Wednesday.
But after bowling during a second XI match against Durham this week he has been declared unfit for the final two Tests.
