Ryder sidelined for three months
WELLINGTON, Feb 24: Rising New Zealand star Jesse Ryder is out of cricket for up to three months after injuring his hand in a bar celebrating New Zealand’s one-day series win over England, officials said on Sunday.
Ryder damaged an index finger and thumb when he broke a window early on Sunday while trying to access a toilet which had been locked.
New Zealand officials said it would be six weeks before Ryder could start light training and up to three months before he can play competitively again.
The 23-year-old requires a reconstruction to the exterior tendon on his index finger, a flap reconstruction and a skin graft.—AFP
