Jonny Bairstow ruled out of IPL 2023
Punjab Kings name Matthew Short as replacement
Bairstow sustained a leg injury in the last match
Jonny Bairstow has been ruled out of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season after sustaining a leg injury in the last match of England's Test series against New Zealand. The news is a major blow to the Punjab Kings, who had retained Bairstow ahead of the upcoming season.
Bairstow is one of the most destructive batsmen in the world and was expected to play a key role for the Kings in the IPL. His absence will be a major setback for the team, who will now be looking to Matthew Short as his replacement.
Short is a talented young batsman who has impressed for the Adelaide Strikers in the Big Bash League. He is a versatile batsman who can bat anywhere in the order and will be hoping to make a big impact for the Kings in the IPL.
The Kings will be hoping that Short can fill the void left by Bairstow and help the team to a successful IPL campaign.
