Mohammad Irfan ruled out of World Cup with hip injury

Pakistan bowler Mohammad Irfan has been ruled out of the rest of the World Cup with a hip injury.

The 32-year-old picked up the problem before the game against Ireland on Sunday, and he missed the win which secured Pakistan's spot in the last eight of the tournament.

Irfan was sent for a second set of scans on Tuesday and it was revealed that he had suffered a stress fracture in his pelvis.

Pakistan played four seamers against Ireland, but leg-spinner Yasir Shah could be in line for a recall as they continue their preparations for Friday's quarter-final against Australia in Adelaide.
