All-rounder Jacob Bethell has been sent back to the UK after suffering a recurrence of a knee injury involving swelling. Because of this medical issue, he has been officially ruled out of England's upcoming white-ball tour of Australia.

Following his removal from the Australia trip, his availability for the subsequent Test series in South Africa is uncertain. Some reports describe him as facing a race against time to be fit, while others note he is a huge doubt for the tour.

The Test series in South Africa is scheduled to begin on 17 December. It remains to be seen if Bethell will recover sufficiently from his knee problem in time to participate in the matches next month.
