India’s Yuvraj ruled out of World T20 semifinal

VETERAN Indian allrounder Yuvraj Singh was yesterday ruled out of the World Twenty20 on the eve of the hosts’ semifinal clash with the West Indies, after suffering an ankle injury.

Batsman Manish Pandey will replace Yuvraj who picked up the injury during India’s six-wicket win over Australia that booked it a spot in today’s semifinal in Mumbai, the International Cricket Council said. The 34-year-old scored 21 runs in Mohali and took one wicket, but struggled with the bat during earlier matches in the tournament, managing just 4, 24 and 3. Pandey became the first Indian to score a century in the glitzy Indian Premier League T20 competition, but the 26-year-old last played for India in July against Zimbabwe. England and New Zealand were clashing in the first semifinal in New Delhi last night.
