(Reuters) - Spinner Liam Dawson has been withdrawn from the England squad in Sri Lanka after sustaining a right side strain, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) said on Monday.

Left-armer Dawson picked up the injury while bowling in Saturday's rain-shortened second one-day international against Sri Lanka, a match Eoin Morgan's men won by 31 runs to go 1-0 up in the five-match series.
