Pakistan's pace leading bowler Mohammad Amir was ruled out of the five-match one-day series against Sri Lanka after suffering a shin injury during the ongoing second Test in Dubai last night. He managed to deliver only three over for his side. Pakistan Cricket Board said the 25-year-old had an MRI scan, after which he was recommended to rest for two to three weeks which will cover the whole tour of UAE against the visitor.

"Amir has been ruled out of the ODI series against Sri Lanka due to a stress-related injury in the right shin. The fast bowler  Amir has been advised to have at least two to three weeks rest after he undergoes an MRI scan," said a PCB release. Amir walked off the field on Friday during the first day's play in the second Test but was cleared to bowl on Saturday.

He managed to bowl just three overs though, 19.3 in the match, before once again limping off the field which cause the host nation to restrict their visitor to a small score as Sri Lanka  post a huge total on the board for Pakistan and it is trouble situation for the host to bowl them as early as possible in the second inning of the second test match, Sri Lanka lead the series 1-0.
