The West Indies will be without all-rounder Justin Greaves for Wednesday’s second One-Day International against India at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati, India, after he was ruled out with a calf injury.

According to Cricket West Indies, Greaves sustained the injury during his innings in the opening match of the series, in which he struck his maiden ODI century.

The team management did not name a replacement ahead of the second match.

Greaves' knock in the series opener marked a career-high performance with the bat, making his enforced absence a significant blow to the Caribbean team’s batting lineup for the remainder of the series.
