Official Statement - Dan Lawrence

Essex batsman Dan Lawrence has left England men’s bio-secure bubble due to a family bereavement.

Lawrence, who has yet to make his Test debut, was named as one of the reserves in the #raisethebat Test series against Pakistan. He will not be available for selection when the second Test starts on Thursday at the Ageas Bowl.

The England and Wales Cricket Board requests that the media respects Dan and his family’s request for privacy at this time.
