ST JOHN's: West Indies captain Kieron Pollard withdrew Sunday from the upcoming white-ball tour of Pakistan after failing to recover from the hamstring injury he sustained in the T20 World Cup. Pollard was replaced in the ODI squad by Devon Thomas and in the T20 squad by allrounder Rovman Powell.

Cricket West Indies said that Pollard will be reassessed in a few weeks ahead of the upcoming home tours by Ireland and England in January 2022. The West Indies are due to play three T20Is and three ODIs at the Karachi National Stadium from Dec. 13-22.
