England bowler Chris Woakes has been ruled out of the final two one-day internationals against Australia with a thigh injury.

England Cricket revealed the news on its Twitter account this morning, but said that the 26-year-old should be available for selection for the Test series against Pakistan later this year.

Warwickshire man Woakes played in the first three matches of the series, which Australia lead 2-1 after England's 93-run win at Old Trafford on Tuesday, but failed to take a wicket in any game.

Left-armers Reece Topley and David Willey will fight it out to take Woakes's place for the fourth ODI which takes place at Headingley tomorrow.
