LONDON (Reuters) - Hampshire fast bowler Fidel Edwards fractured his ankle playing football in a warm-up session this week before an English county championship match against Yorkshire, his club said.

The 34-year-old, who has played 55 tests for the West Indies, got his foot caught in the turf on Wednesday and fell to the ground with no other player near him.
